The late Kenneth G. Andres, Jr. Esq., has been selected as the 2021 NJAJ recipient of the Professional Lawyer of the Year Award. We mourn his passing, but we honor his memory and achievement by selecting him as NJAJ’s recipient of this prestigious award posthumously. The award is presented annually by the New Jersey Commission on Professionalism in the Law.

Yesterday, the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance issued an Order regarding the disclosure of policy limits disclosures. The Order requires all private passenger automobile insurers to submit email addresses to DOBI, where they will receive policy limit requests pursuant to P.L. 2021, c. 177. This Order from the Department of Banking and Insurance is a requirement of the bill S-1558, that went into effect on July 22, 2021 when Governor Murphy signed it into law. The law requires auto insurers to disclose policy coverage limits to an injured party when requested by an attorney.
