As experienced Florida insurance litigation attorneys, it is our experience that homeowner insurance claims are often underpaid causing an increase in assignment of benefits lawsuits between water mitigation and restoration companies and insurance companies.
Florida Panhandle homeowners affected by Hurricane Michael
reported that their claims were systematically underpaid at a January town hall meeting in Panama City. RAF, a statewide organization representing Florida’s mitigation and restoration professionals, believes the Legislature needs a complete set of data before making any far-reaching policy decisions that could impact homeowners and small businesses throughout the state.
RAF’s members believe the Florida Legislature should be given the opportunity to review the claims data, so they may clearly understand the property insurance carriers themselves are to blame for increased litigation.
