The AEGIS 2022 Claims Roundtables will be offered exclusively online via live webinar.

The frequency and intensity of catastrophic storms have escalated over the last several years, making it necessary for utilities to take greater measures to mitigate the impact. This Roundtable discussion will focus on preparation for and response to regionally disruptive severe weather events. We will examine unique and commonly seen electrical contact suits stemming from downed power lines. We will also discuss managing mass power outage litigation arising from severe storms. Finally, we will explore the legal ramifications of the decision to cut or restore power during and after a storm.
