Video: Preparing for the Construction Loss

In this video, “Preparing for the Loss,” Tashia Rasul, partner at Lois Law Firm, talks about the preparation and planning needed long before the construction project or program experiences any injury losses. If you are waiting until a loss has occurred to retain counsel and prepare a plan of action, you are waiting too long!

Some of the topics Tashia discusses include:

  • Assembling a team of risk professionals who will “swing into action” once a catastrophic loss occurs.
    Who should be on the team.
    Getting the team together, running a drill.

This video is from a live presentation on May 4, 2020.
