Confidential
Obtained a confidential settlement on behalf of a homeowner against their homeowner’s insurance company and various vendors for violation of Louisiana law related to insurers’ obligations to adjust insured’s claims in good faith. The homeowner’s insurance company sent an unqualified adjuster to the properly who denied the claim, despite the leak which occurred having clearly been covered in the policy. The homeowner had to move out of the property and live elsewhere, while carrying the mortgage on the family home during litigation. The leak spread throughout the property, causing water damage to grow throughout the home. However, the homeowner’s insurance company delayed and litigated the claim. The case was litigated and settled for a confidential amount days before trial was scheduled to begin.
