This CLE course will discuss the rights and obligations of insurers, policyholders, and non-insureds in circumstances where a non-insured asserts an insurance bad faith claim against an insurer. The parties’ rights and obligations vary markedly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Our panel will address the viability of bad faith claims by non-insureds, strategies for defending against and recovering on such claims, and the current and varied status of statutory and case law in representative jurisdictions.
