Policy Limits Demand

By Pete Burns

ADVERTISEMENTS

The policy limits demand is a powerful tool for the plaintiff and should be taken seriously by the insured defendant. The plaintiff is saying that she will settle her case for a specific sum or the amount of insurance the coverage available to the defendant. If the insurance company refuses to settle the case and the plaintiff wins more than the policy limits sometimes the insurance company can be required to pay the entire judgment. That may require that the defendant sue his insurer for a "bad faith" refusal to settle. If the plaintiff will settle for policy limits and the defendant's insurance company will not agree the smart defendant will hire a lawyer to evaluate the situation immediatley.
