_Glossary_

Canonical: https://www.claimspages.com/learn/glossary/reservation-letter/

Informal shorthand for a reservation of rights communication from insurer to insured about potential coverage limitations.

Same concept as reservation of rights — may be a letter or email. Insureds should treat it as a signal to consult coverage counsel on complex claims.



A short email states the carrier will pay emergency tarping but reserves rights on flood vs. wind causation pending investigation.
