As thousands of California FAIR Plan insureds in Los Angeles struggle with unemployment and denials of their smoke damage claims, insurance specialists John R. Parker, Jr. of Almeida Law Group and Dylan Schaffer of Kerley Schaffer filed a motion to invalidate the FAIR Plan homeowners’ policy as contrary to California law. The motion asks the Los Angeles Superior Court to hold:
- FAIR Plan’s homeowners’ policy fails to provide mandatory fire coverage.
- FAIR Plan has unlawfully failed to investigate, denied, or underpaid thousands of wildfire claims.
- FAIR Plan obtained approval of the policy from the Commissioner by fraud.
- The illegal conduct is ongoing across thousands of claims resulting from the recent devastating fires in Los Angeles.
