The INTA annual meeting which was held in San Diego set some records.  The last time the meeting was held in San Diego back in 2005 there were 7,000 registrants.  This year they had over 9,300 registrants.  The landmark B&B case “B&B Hardware vs. Hargis Industries” which will impact many corporate legal departments as well as the expanding domain name industry namely gTLDs were the big topics at the INTA Annual meeting this year.

The setup at this years meeting was ideal.  The close proximity of the San Diego Convention Center and surrounding hotels, restaurants and attractions made it easy for the registrants to get to meetings, roundtables, events and receptions.

INTA 2015 Takeaways

Here are some highlights…

  1. Social Media Profiles/Backgrounds- Check your claimant’s and their spouses
  2. Surveillance/Subrosa- Technology is outpacing the privacy laws.  Know what you are getting into and the legal ramifications when you instruct your surveillance/subrosa investigators to test the legal boundaries
  3. Fraud Indicators- The cost of insurance fraud in California is $15 billion each year.  Investigation options and restrictions play a key role in fraud mitigation.

Combined Claims Conference was a Success!
