D&O Coverage for Public Investigations
According to legaldictionary.net, a subpoena is:
- A legal document ordering a person to appear in court, or to provide the court with specific documents.
- A legal document summoning a witness, or ordering the submission of evidence, before a court or other investigative body.
When your insured carries a D&O policy, that subpoena may trigger coverage for defense costs, at least, that's what they hope. Join us as Joe Harrington helps us to understand how a public investigation might be covered by D&O policies.
