Attorneys for clergy abuse survivors say they’ve reached settlements with two insurance companies in connection with the ongoing Diocese of Buffalo bankruptcy proceedings.
Wausau Insurance and Continental Insurance Company will pay over $122 million combined.
“These settlements are another step toward the resolution of this case,” attorney Stacey Benson said in a statement. “These settlements are a testament to survivors who refuse to stay silent until the diocese is held accountable.”
The insurance companies were not included in the $150 million settlement reached with the Diocese of Buffalo earlier this year.
