Bryce Adams (Partner-Portland, OR), Lisa Wilson (Partner-Dallas, TX), and Jane Young (Denver, CO) will present the Wilson Elser Forum webinar “Bad Faith Across the Badlands” on May 19, 2026. This presentation explores extra-contractual claims made in Colorado, Oregon, Texas, and Washington. The presenters focus their discussion on the current trends and potential pitfalls in these jurisdictions, including those that exist before the lawsuit is even filed. Also addressed are the standards for bad faith in these states, the exposure these claims create, and particularly dangerous types of damages unique to these jurisdictions.
