Injured Sub v. General Contractor

Hardiman & Carroll represented a contractor and his insurer in claim against a recalcitrant co-insurer that had refused to defend the contractor in a major personal injury action arising out of a devastating accident on a construction site. Dolores Dalton established the duty to defend and settle on a Motion for Summary Adjudication brought against the co-insurer, forcing the co-insurer to put up its $1 million limits and settle the personal injury action on behalf of the contractor.
