Notice of abandonment

A condition that must precede a constructive total loss. If the insured fails to give notice to the marine insurer, the loss can only be treated as partial unless an actual total loss is proved (Marine Insurance Act 1906, s.62). An underwriter who accepts the notice admits liability for the loss. Notice is not necessary where it would not benefit the insurer. See ABANDONMENT.
***
Notice given by the insured to the Insurer in Marine insurance when he considers that he has a claim for a constructive total loss and is therefore prepared to abandon the insured vessel or cargo to insurer.

Notice of Cancellation

Written notice by an insurer of intent to cancel insurance, or written notice by an insured requesting cancellation.
***
Written notification of imminent cancellation from either party. Either the insured is requesting cancellation from the insurer, or the insurer is notifying the insured of its intent to cancel the coverage.

Notice of circumstances

A notice by the insureds to the insurer of facts or circumstances that may reasonably give rise to a future claim. D&ampO, EPL, fiduciary and similar insurance policies typically provide that if the insureds give such notice to the insurer during the policy period with sufficient detail regarding the facts, circumstances and potential claim, then any future claim arising out of the matters described within that notice will be treated for coverage purposes as a claim made during the policy period and therefore subject to the coverage afforded by that policy.

Notice of loss

Notice sent to an insurer informing them that a loss has occurred. How and when this notice must take place is usually specified in the policy.
***
Notice the insured provides to the insurer that a loss has occurred.
