Not only have the firm and its lawyers taken an active role in lobbying for and drafting major insurance legislation, but also, the firm has been responsible for some of the landmark decisions that make up Florida’s legal precedent, including Florida Supreme Court precedent. As a result, Zebersky Payne Shaw Lewenz’s Insurance Litigation Team has developed a reputation for expertise in litigation involving both commercial and individual insurance policies.
Zebersky Payne Shaw Lewenz’s Consumer Litigation Team can assist with cases involving:
Under Payment of Insurance Benefits
Non-Payment of Insurance Benefits
Under Payment of Personal Injury Protection (“PIP”) Benefits
If your insurer denies your claim or refuses to defend you against a claim that you thought was covered under your insurance policy, you need experienced legal advice to challenge your insurance company’s decision.
Insurance contracts and the laws that affect them can be very complicated. Language in an insurance policy that means one thing to you may mean something very different to an insurance company.
