Insurance Defense

What is insurance defense?  

Insurance defense refers to situations where an insurer hires counsel to defend its insured against an action brought by a third party—typically an action alleging that the insured has caused the third party to suffer bodily injury or property damage. The parties to the action are typically the insured and the third-party claimant. The legal issues revolve around whether the insured defendant is liable to a third party, and if so, for how much. Insurance defense cases tend to focus on the facts of a particular incident or occurrence.  Insurance litigation covers such areas as construction defects, reinsurance, catastrophic loss, bad faith, disability, insurance fraud, and more.
