Example - Receive, analyze, and respond to Insurer Name correspondence seeking clarification on the standard for determining the difference between substantial structural impairment and imminent danger of collapse. (that is the unredacted) and what we would keep uncovered from the redacting tape would be as follows: Receive, analyze, and respond to Insurer Name correspondence </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">I have a case with a PGAL who is seeing my invoices and I use that same standard - I show that I had a call or communication with the Executor, but remove any reference to what was discussed. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">This standard (in the insurance litigation world) has been upheld by both federal and state judges alike.
