Litigation Cost Protection is insurance to cover costs spent by plaintiffs’ attorneys and litigants in furtherance of the case. Litigation Cost Protection is sold on a case-by-case basis, providing a unique opportunity to insure each case’s individual cost disbursements. Litigation Cost Protection covers costs spent in furtherance of litigation including expert costs, deposition transcripts, travel costs (hotels, airfare and ancillary travel expenses), filing fees, trial exhibits, mediator expenses, copies, e-discovery, and all other costs spent directly on the case.

Litigation Cost Protection protects against the risk of losing the costs you incur in your lawsuit in the event the case is lost at trial. The insured simply makes a claim for the total cost disbursements and is reimbursed up to the policy limits.

Attorneys and plaintiffs who are financing the litigation. Attorneys who represent clients on a contingency fee basis can purchase Litigation Cost Protection on a case-by-case basis. Likewise, plaintiffs who have retained an attorney pursuant to an hourly or other fee arrangement and are paying litigation costs themselves can directly purchase Litigation Cost Protection. Litigation Cost Protection is not available to defendants.
