unindemnified
Lacking financial protection
Unindemnified describes someone or something not protected against loss, damage, or legal liability.
If a party to a contract is left unindemnified, they bear the full risk of any claims or costs that arise, with no guarantee of compensation from another party.
The subcontractor remained unindemnified for any injuries on the job site.
The term appears primarily in legal and insurance contexts where allocation of risk is central to agreements.
