Conditions

The conditions of civil liability insurance, regardless of the type, are fixed at the legislative level.

Insurance conditions include the following main sections:

  • the conditions under which insurance coverage is provided;
  • insurance scheme;
  • rules and important points regarding the procedure for transferring the rights of the policyholder after the payment of insurance compensation;
  • procedure for payment of insurance compensation;
  • grounds for refusal to make compensation payments;
  • the duration of the insurance contract.

The section covering the conditions for providing insurance coverage discusses the most important points. They relate to the limits of liability within which the insurance contract is valid.

When concluding a contract, it is especially important to familiarize yourself with this point as carefully as possible. Since most often it is his insurance companies that are used in order to somehow elude the obligation to pay insurance compensation.

An insurance scheme is usually understood as the procedure for concluding insurance contract, as well as a scheme for obtaining monetary compensation by the injured party.

This paragraph reads out all the information regarding cases where an agreement is possible, and a list of actions that must be taken to obtain monetary compensation.

Each contract for the provision of civil liability insurance contains a clause regarding the change in the transfer of rights to claim monetary compensation.

So, upon the occurrence of an insured event, the culprit of which is a third party, the insurance company receives the right to claim monetary compensation. In some cases, another insurance company acts as a defendant.

This happens especially often when a traffic accident occurs. Insurance Company the culprit becomes a defendant against the innocent driver's insurance company.

The section entitled "Procedure for the payment of insurance compensation" contains all the information regarding the timing of the payment of compensation, as well as its size.

This moment of insurance conditions is especially strictly regulated by law. For violation of the deadlines for the payment of monetary compensation, a rather serious fine is imposed. V this section the procedure for the policyholder's actions in the event of an insured event is announced.

The person concluding the insurance contract should carefully read the section in which the cases are announced when the insurance company has the right to refuse to pay insurance compensation.

If a relevant precedent arises, even in the event of an insured event, compensation will simply not be paid.

When concluding a civil liability insurance contract, it is imperative to select the term of the agreement with a certain margin of time. Since in the event of its expiration, it becomes impossible to receive insurance payments.

What accidents can be

Insured events are very different. Their typology depends, first of all, on the objects and subjects of insurance, stipulated in the concluded agreement.

For example, when insuring motor third party liability, insured events include:

  • damage to property of third parties;
  • damage to health;
  • harming life.

There are many important nuances in this type of insurance. All of them should be taken into account without fail in order to avoid litigation in court. Third party liability insurance for vehicle drivers is strictly compulsory.

The list of insurance risks associated with real estate is quite extensive. It includes the following:

  • damage to the property of third parties as a result of the operation of the building or utilities;
  • damage caused by the repair or construction of buildings.

Third party liability insurance in construction

Due to the specifics of such activities as construction, third party liability insurance is simply a must. Otherwise, the likelihood of serious material expenditures is high.

Insurance coverage of the type in question comes into force if the policyholder is presented with claims by third parties, declared in accordance with the norms of the civil legislation of the Russian Federation.

Federal law governing compensation for harm caused as a result of any activity directly on the construction site or outside it, which entailed:

  • harm to life or health (disability, injury, death);
  • serious damage to property (complete destruction of the vehicle, buildings, animals or even buildings).

Also, the insurer is obliged to pay the costs incurred as a result of the litigation. The amount of insurance compensation in the event of an insured event is determined in accordance with the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

Also, the determination of the amount of monetary compensation may be left to the discretion of the parties. Most often, the required amount is the funds required to fully compensate for the damage received: treatment, restoration work, and others.

Acting on the territory Russian Federation legislation implies liability for harm due to poor quality and improperly performed work.

This moment is covered in maximum detail in Federal Law No. 315 "On Self-Regulatory Organizations", as well as Federal Law No. 148 "On Amendments to the Urban Planning Code of the Russian Federation."

This case is covered by third party liability insurance. In the event of damage, the UK assumes all financial responsibility up to the agreed amount.

The insured in this case is a legal entity or any legally capable individual, who has the right to conclude a civil liability insurance contract, and is responsible for improper performance of construction work.

The property interests of the insured act as the object of civil liability insurance to third parties.

An important condition is the absence of contradictions between the very interests of the legislation in force on the territory of the Russian Federation.

The disadvantages that are the cause of the insured event include:

  • unintentional mistakes made as a result of construction work, major repairs, which are the result of violation of instructions formulated for the implementation of work of a certain kind;
  • mistakes and rash actions resulting from violation of the rules for conducting construction work.

An apartment that has been flooded or burned down will need a major overhaul or high-quality renovation. And with his assurance, the tenant or tenant saves time and money, and numerous reviews confirm this.

Classification of the procedure and the procedure for conducting insurance

As you know from practice, there are civil liability franchises, which are conventionally divided into the following types:

  • general;
  • service provider;
  • directors and officers;
  • professional;
  • employer;
  • vehicle owner;
  • harm to the environment.

The most demanded type of insurance for motorists is OSAGO, and as for fires and floods, this refers to general liability. In general, the established classification model is rather arbitrary, although it was adopted by the companies. These varieties pursue a single purpose - an object, a material interest from damage.

To conclude a contract for any type of insurance, a public offer must be provided. The offer of the insurance company is adjusted according to the requirements of the consumer. When contacting, the client will receive a form in which the conditions will be set out, and if the information is not objectionable, then the contract is signed and executed.

Insurance for motorists

As for the owner of the car, in this case, the legal owner must insure the car within five days after receiving it for his own use. Third party liability insurance remains valid if the car was purchased and when it is a gift.

Moreover, such categories are considered owners and fall under the classification type of certification. Therefore, within the time frame established by law, you must go to the company's website and indicate there the personal information for the contract. Then the client pays for OSAGO. And as soon as the paid funds enter the system, conditions are drawn up and sent by mail to the insured person.

The main advantage of such an agreement is to receive it by mail and print it out on a printer. Moreover, this will be considered acceptable for transport services and traffic police officers. However, judging by the reviews, the resulting copy may become a problem in jurisprudence, in view of the fact that the original has priority.
