Should a tenant receive the benefit of a landlord's insurance?
Article Abstract:
The most effective way to ensure that insurance problems in the commercial lease context are minimized is to draft the lease properly and have all parties insure their own insurable interests. Courts are split on whether an insurer is presumed to have subrogation rights when the insurer may have claims against the tenant for damage to the property. Leases are drafted to allocate insurance responsibilities a number of different ways. Each party should insure their own property interests and should insure against their own liability risks.
