The Sunshine State Advantage: Legal Consulting for Presuit Claim Resolution

News

Introduction

Florida’s insurance environment is one of the most complex in the nation. Between evolving statutes, high claim volumes, and frequent litigation, insurers operating in Florida face constant pressure to resolve claims efficiently—and with sound legal footing. At Florida Presuit Consultants, P.A., we provide specialized legal consulting services designed to support insurance professionals in the presuit phase, where strategic resolution can significantly reduce exposure and litigation costs.

Why is Legal Consultation on Presuit Claims in Florida Important?

Presuit resolution isn’t just smart—it’s a business necessity. That’s where teaming with Florida Presuit Consultants, P.A., can help create a cost-effective advantage, whether your case is resolved or eventually litigated.


How Legal Consulting Supports Florida Insurance Professionals

      1. Streamline Claims Investigation
        Florida law provides clear (and sometimes strict) guidelines around pre-suit notice, demand letters, and timing. Recent tort reform and significant changes to the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure have combined to make concise presuit claims handling more important than ever. FPC provides assistance on evaluating liability, damages, settlement values and developing litigation plans so you can have all the pertinent information needed in arriving on your “settle or defend” decision.
      2. Bad Faith Prevention
        Florida is notorious for bad faith litigation. We help insurers document claim handling thoroughly, evaluate exposure early, and respond appropriately to time-limited demands, thereby preserving your position in the event litigation does follow.
      3. Reduce Wasted Time in Litigation
        Once your case falls into suit, time is of the essence as the Supreme Court of the State of Florida has implemented Case Management Orders (CMO) that require cases to be settled or tried in as little as 18 months from the date a lawsuit is filed. Having a litigation plan in place, developed through a team approach with FPC, will ensure your litigation counsel gets to work on case-specific issues and investigation without the delay often associated with the initial file review and reporting timeframes.
      4. Our Legal Consulting Approach in Florida Ensures:
