A former tenant of ours filed a wrongful eviction lawsuit against us. Our insurance company appointed an attorney to defend us during the ordeal. It never went to trial, instead it was settled thru mediation for $50,000. However, our insurance company said it would only pitch in $25,000. We said we could contribute $10,000. They paid the whole amount but now our former insurance company is threatening us with a lawsuit if we don't pay them the remaining $15,000. What are our options?
Answer
You should contact an insurance coverage lawyer. This may be a legal malpractice case as well as an insurance bad faith case. Good luck.
