OCM Partner Sean Carnathan explains the Massachusetts Supreme Court’s recent decision regarding the impact of Massachusetts Chapter 176D — the law of insurance unfair claims settlement practices — on consent-to-settle clauses in professional liability insurance policies. Sean is the author of Massachusetts Bad Faith Insurance Litigation (2d ed. 2020), available from Lawyers Weekly Books.
