Commercial property insurance is an essential form of protection for any business that owns or leases property. Like most insurance policies, commercial property policies are subject to coverage limits setting forth the maximum amount the insurer(s) are contractually obligated to pay. While in many cases involving a substantial property loss the applicable policy limit is clear, in some cases it is not, and the amount to which the policyholder is entitled is governed by a confluence of policy provisions informed by applicable state law.
