To Report A Loss To This Program
|
Because of the highly specialized nature of our coverage, please report any claims, actions or suits directly:
email: claims@elliottsr.com
Elliott Special Risks LP 130 Adelaide Street West, Suite 810 Toronto, ON M5H 3PS Attn: Claims Department
Tel: (416) 601-1133 x2275 Toll-free: (800) 223-8858 x2275 Fax: (416) 601-1150* * Please send all faxes to the attention of the Claims Department
The reporting condition of the policy requires that you report to the insurer any incidents which might give rise to a claim, even though no such claim has yet been received.
Liability claims for this class of business may often follow months or years after the event itself. Failure to report an incident promptly may jeopardize the insurers investigation and defence of a subsequent legal action. To avoid the risk that individual losses may be denied as a result of late reporting, we would encourage you to report all such incidents promptly.
Please note that if your policy is written on a claims-made form, the policy contains certain restrictions that limit the reporting of losses after the policy has expired.
