- Primary policies typically owe a duty to defend and often provide that defense costs are outside of policy limits. This means that the payment of defense costs does not reduce the insured’s coverage. (Justice H. Walter Croskey, et al., *Cal. Prac. Guide: Ins. Litig.* (The Rutter Group rev. ed. 2022), ¶ 7:355 [“Croskey”].) Accordingly, primary policies typically are more expensive than excess policies and command a significantly higher premium.
