For years, our founder, Don Malecki wrote an industry leading insurance newsletter, Malecki On Insurance. An example of one of his informative articles on Anti-Indemnity Statutes is here.
The following is a list of major publications authored/co-authored by Don Malecki, and in some cases co-authored by two of our partners Greg Deimling and Kathleen Robison, which are available for purchase from the publisher (some in subsequent editions).
