We're only one week away from the session on the SAFETY Act ("The SAFETY Act - It Can Reduce Your Liability Resulting from Acts of Terrorism")! This should be a fabulous panel discussion covering the types of liability companies could face following a terrorist event, and how one of the best (and only) ways to manage that liability is through the SAFETY Act. And given the news recently on the threats from terrorism, whether in the form of cyber attacks or terrorist bombings, this session is as timely as ever.
The SAFETY Act is a US law that provides sellers and manufacturers of anti-terror products and services a way to either cap their liability or eliminate it following a terrorist attack. Our panel will review the basics of the law, including how it operates, the protections it offers, how to obtain it, and how the SAFETY Act can compliment existing risk management plans. Our panelists will also go into significant detail about how the SAFETY Act can even provide coverage for risks that other wise would have to be paid out of pocket.
We certainly hope you can join us, and please feel free to send in questions that we can address during the session! I am sure people will want to know answers to questions about how broadly it applies (very), whether a specific product or service could receive SAFETY Act protections (just ask), and if you all are being serious when you say that the government will give you immunity from lawsuit (yes!!!)
So see you at Session LEG 300 (Tuesday at 2:15 pm) and I look forward to answering your questions!
