indemnify, defend, and hold harmless zrekompensować straty oraz przejąć roszczenia i ich skutki prawne

Explanation:
Problem wypłynął na jednym z forów tłumaczeniowych; zapisuję tutaj ku pamięci sugestię jednego z kolegów, która wydaje się trafna.

Zrobiłam mały research (niektóre wyniki w "References") i jak rozumiem, "defend and hold harmless" oznacza mniej więcej tyle, że Iks zapewni Igrekowi obronę w razie ewentualnych roszczeń (w praktyce w postaci pokrycia kosztów obsługi prawnej, ale może to mieć szersze znaczenie), oraz nie będzie wysuwał roszczeń w stosunku do Igreka (choć tę frazę można też interpretować jako bliższą znaczeniowo "indemnify"). "Przejęcie roszczeń i ich skutków prawnych" obejmuje te znaczenia (mniej więcej), ponieważ obsługa prawna jest skutkiem prawnym roszczenia.

Reference: Indemnity Provisions

Reference information:
Indemnity provisions may include any, or all, of three obligations to (1) indemnify, (2) defend and (3) hold harmless the other party. "Indemnify" means to reimburse the other party following a loss. "Defend" means to pay the other party's legal expenses as it defends itself against a third party claim. "Hold harmless" may have different meanings, but most generally it is understood to be an agreement to absolve another party from any responsibility for damage or other liability arising from a transaction.

--------------------------------------------------

An indemnification provision commonly includes a trilogy of verbs: to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless. Legal scholars tell us that “to indemnify” and “to hold (or to save) harmless” mean the same thing, i.e., leave the indemnified party free of any loss. Nonetheless, judges haven’t universally gotten to that point. So, wise practice is to recite the trilogy. Even though, to the layperson, the concept of holding someone harmless might include covering any reasonable and necessary legal fees that person had to spend on account of the “thing” or “event” being covered, that just isn’t the case.
In the U.S.A., we’re beholden to the “American Rule.” Basically, it says that you don’t get attorneys fees from the losing side because that would keep people from availing themselves of the courts when they have good faith, valid, but still “losing” lawsuits. This rationale doesn’t seem to apply in the indemnification situation where the basic premise is that the indemnitor is making the Indemnitee “whole.” Nonetheless, the “American Rule” frames a lot of judge’s attitudes toward how attorney fee issues should be handled. To avoid such an outcome, those wanting to carefully draft indemnification clauses may want to obligate the indemnitor to either or both provide a defense for the person being indemnified and, as will be repeated later, it had better expressly state that attorneys’ fees are covered. An exception to the “American Rule” will honor such agreements.
An obligation to defend goes beyond picking up the costs of defense. In appropriate cases, the person being indemnified may actually want its indemnitor to hire the attorneys and do most of the work. In the sample clause later in this posting, you’ll see one of many approaches aimed at obtaining this result, but give the indemnified party the ability to get its own defense if the indemnitor doesn’t do so. More elaborate provisions give the indemnified party some control over the handling of its defense. Depending on the inclinations of the parties and the expected risk, the “duty to defend” provisions can take a full page of text.
