Texas Insurance Coverage Litigation is a practice guide for Texas litigators handling insurance coverage lawsuits or confronted with insurance questions in the litigation context. It includes legal analysis, practical tips, forms, and annotations specific to Texas and Fifth Circuit practice.

Part II is an overview of key concepts that apply to insurance coverage lawsuits governed by Texas law, including the rules of construction and the obligations of both the insurer and the insured.

Part III examines all aspects of an insurance coverage lawsuit, including pre-litigation matters, pleadings and discovery, trial considerations, and post-trial proceedings.
