FAQ

The benefit of a declaratory judgment is that it prevents lawsuits that are likely to be unsuccessful, which saves the courts, and ultimately taxpayers, resources and time. A policyholder that receives an unfavorable declaratory judgment is unlikely to file a lawsuit, as the suit is much more likely to be dismissed.

A declaratory judgment is a legally binding judgment where a court declares the rights and obligations of the parties to a written agreement, such as an insurance policy or other contract.

A declaratory judgment is a binding judgment from a court defining the legal relationship between parties and their rights in a matter before the court. When there is uncertainty as to the legal obligations or rights between two parties, a declaratory judgment offers an immediate means to resolve this uncertainty.

Your insurance company client wants to file a declaratory judgment action to determine whether the insurer owes coverage to one of the defendants in a civil lawsuit.

A plaintiff seeking declaratory relief must show that there is an actual controversy even though declaratory relief will not order enforceable action against the defendant. An actual controversy means there is a connection between the challenged conduct and injury, and redressability that the court could order.

An example of a declaratory judgment in an insurance situation may occur when a policyholder and an insurer disagree about whether a particular claim is covered under the insurance policy. For instance, suppose a homeowner files a claim with their insurance company for damages to their home caused by a storm.

Typically, when filing a declaratory judgment action, insurers seek an adjudication of both their duty to defend and their duty to indemnify, because the duty to defend is broader than the duty to indemnify and, if insurers do not have the former duty, then they typically do not have the latter duty, either.
