She will provide an overview of forensic interviewing and discuss how children disclose abuse and the emotional aspects of sexual abuse.

Statutes of limitation issues can manifest themselves in multiple contexts in cases alleging sexual torts. The jurisdictional landscape varies dramatically and remains ever changing, from window and revival statutes for both childhood and adult claims, to statutes encompassing discovery rules based on opinions of healthcare professionals, to states with strong and defense-friendly statutes. Apart from statutory nuances, whether a claim is barred can also hinge on critical facts gathered during discovery or alleged by the parties. Join an experienced practitioner for a discussion of what statutes of limitation issues can arise, when to strategically raise them, how to use the statute to shape the defense strategy and claim evaluation, and more. You will also receive, as part of your course materials for this presentation, a 50-state compendium on current status of statutes of limitations in sexual tort cases.

Claims of sexual misconduct require a multifaceted approach in evaluation, settlement discussions and mediation.

Sexual tort cases present an array of coverage issues that can be complex and confusing. They may have occurred long ago, and policies have been lost or misplaced; there may have been multiple occurrences over multiple policy periods; some policies may have sub-limits that apply in certain circumstances and policies differ widely on the exclusions for avoidance of sexual torts. Further, insurers are often faced with policy limit demands when there may be multiple competing claimants. This panel will identify and offer guidance as to how insurers can effectively address these and other typical issues.
