In Florida, the legal authorities governing and relating to property insurance, associated claims, and insurance adjusting are scattered in various bodies of law (beyond the “Florida Insurance Code”). Unfortunately, they are not always easy to locate, or logically categorized or ordered. This book contains a comprehensive compilation of these statutes, rules, and other legal authorities. To compile the materials in this publication, an exhaustive review was undertaken of the Florida Statutes, Florida Administrative Code, and other bodies of law. Once compiled, the authorities were then re-categorized and re-ordered in an effort to make them easier to search. In addition, this book includes a helpful list of over one hundred (100) important deadlines and timing issues, as well as a list of other selected statutes, an extensive list of state and federal cases (arranged by topic), and a list of resources relevant to property insurance and public adjusting. Public adjusters should find this book helpful to their adjustment and handling of claims, and in dealing with insurance representatives. It should also assist public adjusters in becoming more familiar with the relevant legal authorities, and the legislative process, which has become more important in recent years with the passage of restrictive regulations for public adjusters.
