Title Insurance & Hold Harmless Agreements

Stewart Title entered into a "hold harmless" agreement with a solicitor for claims arising under the policy. However, when litigation ensued, Stewart Title refused to defend the solicitor, taking the position that they would only have to pay an eventual Judgment. The Court in Stewart Title v. Zeppieri found that "hold harmless" means more than merely indemnifying; Stewart Title was obliged to defend as well. At Plant Quinn Thiele LLP, we will hold the insurer to their obligations and obtain remedies from the Court if they won't. For a free consultation, call Todd K. Plant at 613-563-1131.
