WASHINGTON GUIDE 06
Washington Stacking & Multiple Insurance Policies
Washington stacking analysis asks whether more than one independently applicable coverage may respond to the same loss. The answer depends on the coverage involved, the policies, insured status, other-insurance clauses, and current Washington law.
- Identify every potentially applicable policy and limit.
- Determine whether each policy independently covers the claimant and occurrence.
- Review anti-stacking, other-insurance and anti-duplication language.
- Apply current Washington statutory and appellate authority to the specific coverage.
