Can they look at the case or discuss with the persons solicitor, the viability of a case? Do they have any input?
We are pursuing an inheritance act claim (England) and are concerned the defendants have obtained insurance to cover the case. Fraudulently imo because they were aware from very early on we were challenging the will, but that's not our problem.
Our concern is that if they have unlimited funds they will force it to court despite its pretty hopeless nature. We will be having formal mediation in the coming months and hope to settle, but they have taken a very adversarial stance from the beginning. We would have to use CFA.
Would an insurance company look at the facts of the case and decide whether it has any chance of winning, or just pay up?
