In this episode of "Don't Take No For An Answer," host Eric Jesse and Heather Weaver from Lowenstein's Insurance Recovery Group invite guest Michael Young, partner at Reichardt Noce and Young, to discuss an insurer's duty to indemnify, a lesser discussed but equally important coverage obligation as the duty to defend. The conversation notes key differences between the insurer's duty to indemnify and duty to defend, emerging approaches that courts have adopted to determine whether an insurer must pay in whole or in part for a judgment entered against or settlement reached with its insured, and ways insurers and policyholders can work together to encourage settlement of a lawsuit with duty to indemnify strategies and considerations.
