Robert Ferguson v. Aon Risk Services Companies, Inc.

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of the professional negligence claim and summary judgment against Plaintiffs on their breach of contract claim. It held that Clarendon was not an intended third-party beneficiary of the agreements between Aon and SCB, and that Aon owed Clarendon no professional duty to notify SCB's insurers of Clarendon's claims. The court also concluded that both claims were time-barred because Plaintiffs were on inquiry notice of the alleged breach by 2012 but did not sue until 2019.
