In the wake of recent mass shootings, Americans are engaged in profound consideration of public and private responses to firearms violence.

This seminar will describe several of the insurance dimensions of this critical concern, including:

• A review of personal lines policy provisions and exposure to losses arising from firearms;
• The impact of "stand your ground" laws and similar statutes on firearms liability exposure;
• The status of the market for extended personal liability coverage for firearms use;
• Emergence of "active shooter" coverage and other forms of insurance for violent events; and
• The impact of mass shootings on the definition of acts of terrorism and resulting coverage.
