We represent a major document and data storage provider in pursuing claims for indemnity and insurance coverage for losses incurred in indemnifying the owner of computer tapes containing private data about hundreds of thousands of employees that were stolen as a result of the negligence of a subcontractor hired to transport the tapes. After settling with the owner, we also settled with the subcontractor, in part by obtaining an assignment of the subcontractor's claims against its insurance carriers for reimbursement of the costs of defending and settling the owner's claims, including millions of dollars incurred in notifying the persons affected about the loss of their private data and in providing credit monitoring to persons who requested it. Thereafter, we filed suit against the subcontractor's insurance carriers seeking recovery under the provisions of policies protecting against liability resulting from invasion of privacy and also on behalf of the subcontractor against its broker for not obtaining adequate insurance naming our client as an additional insured.
