Insurance
Related Litigation
Many times
individuals and corporations think because they have insurance,
if they do get sued, they will be covered. However, as many of
our clients have learned the hard way that is not always the case.
The firm is routinely involved in litigation where the insurance
underwriter has gone bankrupt or refuses coverage whereby our client was forced to
defend lawsuits that should have been defended by its insurance
carrier. Thus, besides having been engaged in defending various
lawsuits that should have been defended by the insurance underwriter,
the firm has successfully sued an insurance agent for having negligently
placed the insurance with an underwriter that the agent knew or
should have known was financially unstable.
In addition,
the firm has had to represent individuals who thought they had
insurance, but for one reason or another the insurance underwriter
took the position that the policy had not been properly paid.
In such a situation, the firm was successful in demonstrating
to the insurance company that the insurance company's notice of
termination had gone to the wrong place. Thus, the firm is developing
an expertise in the area of insurance coverage related matters.
Such areas typically would include forcing an insurance company
to accept coverage of liability and to provide proper representation
where, for whatever reason, the insurance company is taking the
position that such coverage is not available pursuant to a particular
insurance policy.
