On December 8, 2014 EquestrianProfessional.com will host an equine law webinar specifically for horse professionals. This horse business seminar will be presented by equine law expert, Julie I Fershtman, attorney at law and will discuss "What Horse Professionals Should Know About Avoiding Equine Insurance Disputes".

Whether equine professionals buy equine insurance for their own horses or whether they maintain horses belonging to others that are insured, it is important to understand the fine points and details regarding coverage that can make the difference between a paid claim and a denied claim. Equine professionals can also protect themselves from possible liabilities for failing to protect their client's interests as to insurance. 

This webinar will explain important, but sometimes little-known, equine insurance requirements as well as suggestions for avoiding disputes with insurers and equine professionals' clients.  Equine professionals cannot afford to miss it.

Julie Fershtman, the presenter, is a nationally known equine law practitioner with 28 years of experience.  She has handled, and won, numerous equine insurance cases around the country.
