Managed Claims Clause Samples
The Managed Claims clause outlines the procedures and responsibilities for handling claims that arise under a contract. Typically, it specifies which party is responsible for managing the defense, settlement, or resolution of claims, and may set out requirements for notification, cooperation, and approval of settlements. For example, one party may be required to promptly inform the other of any third-party claim and allow them to take control of the defense. This clause ensures that claims are addressed efficiently and consistently, reducing the risk of miscommunication or unmanaged liability.
