DUFFIN,  HASH & COATES

Duffin and Hash, LLP serves as defense counsel to several insurance companies doing business in Indiana. We provide comprehensive representation to our clients from coverage opinions to handling every aspect of insurance litigation, including claims and coverage under all types of policies.

Our attorneys have earned a well-known reputation for providing solid representation to clients at all stages of the litigation process, and have successfully represented clients in both the state and federal court systems. We also understand that litigation is often expensive and not always the best solution. Our attorneys carefully examine each situation to determine whether litigation or another option is the best course of action and can assist in alternatives to litigation including negotiated settlements, arbitration or mediation. If litigation is necessary, we will provide efficient and effective representation at the trial and appellate court levels.

Our coverage work includes duty to defend analysis, bad faith claims, contractual coverage, policy conditions, fiduciary responsibility, business interruption coverage, mass plaintiff and toxic tort cases. We have successfully negotiated settlements of coverage disputes to avoid litigation and offer our clients outstanding service in all aspects of insurance law, including litigation, mediation, and arbitration. Our office locations on the north side of Indianapolis and in Jasper, Indiana, facilitate our statewide practice and our attorneys routinely handle cases throughout the entire State.

Our attorneys have extensive experience in the area of personal injury law and have the knowledge necessary to review your situation and provide an honest opinion as to whether your case should be pursued. If we believe we can help, we will explain the process that will be followed and outline your options. Our attorneys will strive to obtain the best possible outcome, whether that is achieved through a negotiated settlement or a jury trial.
