Our review of 2021 cases includes issues of:

- Cyber/privacy
- recoupment
- legal malpractice
- priority of coverage among policies
Among the many cases to watch in 2022, are opioid coverage disputes and an important issue before the Texas Supreme Court regarding looking to extrinsic evidence to determine a duty to defend.
