Federal Court Highlights the Strategic Value of Additional Insured Coverage

June 22, 2026 — Michael S. Levine - Hunton Insurance Recovery Blog
A recent decision from the District of Maryland underscores a recurring—but often underutilized—opportunity for policyholders: securing and enforcing additional insured coverage under another party’s liability policy. In Charter Oak Fire Insurance Co. v. Builders Premier Insurance Co., the court held that an equipment lessor qualified as an additional insured under the lessee’s policy and was entitled to a primary defense. The decision is a useful reminder that additional insured coverage can fundamentally shift defense obligations and materially reduce a policyholder’s exposure. We build on the decision to highlight the practical steps policyholders should take to ensure that all potentially available insurance is identified and pursued. Read the full story...

New York Construction Employers Face New Reporting and Cancellation Pay Requirements Beginning December 8, 2026

October 26, 2026 — Bradley J. Bartolomeo & Clare M. Cunningham - Lewis Brisbois
Effective December 8, 2026, pursuant to the New York Construction Reporting Pay Act, employers in the New York State construction industry will be subjected to new reporting requirements and will be required to pay both union and non-union workers for certain last-minute schedule changes, even when the disruption is caused by weather, failed inspections, material shortages, site-access restrictions, or delays attributable to owners, general contractors, or other trades. For many contractors, routine decisions that have historically been considered part of construction scheduling risk may now create mandatory wage obligations, prevailing wage compliance concerns, and potential wage-and-hour litigation exposure.

Building More Than a Ramp: HHMR and the Home Builders Foundation

September 15, 2026 — Colorado Construction Litigation Blog
Last Friday, four members of the Higgins, Hopkins, McLain & Roswell team traded briefs, depositions, and construction litigation files for lumber, drills, and a day on a jobsite. HHMR attorneys Ricky Nolen, Amanda Tynan, Kyle Thompson, and Tanner Davis participated in the Home Builders Foundation’s 2026 Blitz Build, helping construct an accessibility ramp for Andrea, a Denver-area resident whose mobility challenges had made something most of us take for granted extraordinarily difficult: leaving her own home independently. The day after the build, the volunteers received an e-mail from HBF’s Terrina Reiber with an unusual request: set an alarm for 10:00 the next morning. At 10:00 on a Saturday, she explained, they might be running errands, meeting a friend, or simply deciding what to do with the day. When the alarm went off, she asked them to think about Andrea. Because Andrea could now make that same choice. Read the full story...
