Lane Finch Presenting DRI Webinar on Primary and Excess Carriers
Partner Lane Finch, along with John Foley of Markel, will present the webinar, "Primary and Excess Carriers: Tensions and Triumphs," on Aug. 19 from 1-2 p.m. Eastern.

This program will explore how carriers can work together, what duties they owe to each other and when or if those duties may shift. It will also address when limits should be tendered, the effect of tendering limits, how different jurisdictions treat tenders in the context of the duty to defend, pre/post judgment interest issues and dealing with disputes over coverage positions.
