Despite the shifting markets, new risks, and the continued need to stay on top of the mountain of legal and regulatory requirements, government contractors are managing to continue the challenging climb. Solid footing and a trusted team and resources are necessary to take advantage of efficiencies and minimize risks in contracting as well as maximize opportunities both for growth and recovery.


Our lawyers are helping to lead the climb, following the various regulatory initiatives and thinking through what impending changes mean for contractors. Join us for this free conference where our experienced practitioners will be providing updates and insight in a variety of areas, including ethics and compliance, bid protests, False Claims Act enforcement, cybersecurity, international issues affecting government contractors, and more. These resources will provide contractors with the momentum to continue the upward climb in the government contracting industry.

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.
