Timing is everything

Timing is everything. Here’s how a release on PR Newswire begins: “Just over a month after the Nevada Supreme Court allowed 700 homeowners to join a lawsuit against developers for allegedly defective exterior stucco — attorneys, insurers, risk managers, construction experts and judges from around the country will gather here for a three-day conference on construction defect claims and insurance coverage. The Comprehensive Construction Defect Claims & Coverage Conference will take place November 5, 6 & 7.” Hmmm. Anything else going on in this area lately? Oh yes — that probe of homeowners associations and the alleged collusion between lawyers and developers in filing these suits. Wonder if that will come up?
