casualty insurance

An agreement to indemnify against loss resulting from a broad group of causes such as legal liability, theft, accident, property damage, and workers’ compensation.

• The meaning of casualty insurance has become blurred because of the rapid increase in different types of insurance coverage. Cf. accident insurance. [Cases: Insurance 1008; Workers’ Compensation 1061. C.J.S. Insurance §§ 4–5, 7, 15, 17–18; Workmen’s Compensation § 663.]
