I have a carrier who denied liability for an auto accident. The 3rd party is represented. The attorney is requesting disclosure of limits even though the claim has been denied. The carrier wants to know if they still have to disclose limits even though they denied liability. Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The carrier does not know? These are the people who _should_ know. Depends completely on state law... and we don't know what state this is in. A denial probably does not make any difference as it has no bearing on why a state would require disclosure. For example, FL states that the limits need to be disclosed to any "claimant". A claimant is a claimant even if liability has been denied.
