Navigating Uncharted Waters
With the momentum growing for reform in a variety of regulatory areas but not yet coalesced into specific objectives, the time is right for government contractors to dive into uncharted waters. Contractors have a unique opportunity to shape those reform efforts in ways that make contracting more efficient and less burdensome, and maximize opportunities for growth.
Our lawyers are on the forefront, following the various regulatory initiatives and thinking through what impending changes mean for contractors – preparing you for the plunge. We will be providing updates and insight in a variety of areas, including ethics and compliance, bid protests, False Claims Act enforcement, international issues affecting government contractors, and more, as well as several vignettes into common scenarios requiring critical interaction between contractors and outside counsel, in order to help contractors understand the shifting dynamics and how they can not only navigate the waters, but channel them.
This program is intended for government contractors only. Please no private law firms or government employees.

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today
Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
