[WSBARP] encroachments and insurance

[Cyrus Field]

Folks- Client recently had a survey done that revealed a few small
encroachments ("areas of concern"- a teepee, a children's playset and a few
feet of a parking lot) by neighbor.  Client has asked me to prepare an
Agreement consenting to existing use, that is revocable, etc. 

 

While the neighbors apparently have deep pockets, and I want to keep things
in perspective cost wise, I am not sure how to handle the insurance part of
the indemnity clause. As a practical matter, could the neighbor get
insurance listing my clients as additional insured for a reasonable fee for
this type of use? Any idea what a reasonable policy limit might be under
these circumstances? Thanks in advance as I haven't had this issue come up
before and wanted to tap into the lists' collective wisdom/experience before
I proceed further, Cy
