Summary:
Miami Senior Partner Anthony Perez, Junior Partner Cristina Sevilla, and Associate Brittany Pryce secured a dismissal with prejudice in the matter styled Mold Details Corporation a/a/o Michael Sapoznik v Defendant Insurance Company. Plaintiff filed its initial suit alleging that Defendant breached the insurance contract by denying coverage for Plaintiff’s claim for payment relating to services rendered at the insured property pursuant to an assignment of benefits. Defendant filed its Motion for Summary Judgment, contending that Plaintiff’s notice of intent to initiate litigation was premature and failed to comply with Florida Statute §627.7152. In advance of the hearing on Defendant’s motion, Plaintiff dismissed the case without prejudice. Two years later, after attempting to correct its defective notice of intent, Plaintiff filed this second lawsuit. Pursuant to §627.7152(10), Defendant sought to collect the attorneys’ fees and costs incurred defending the first lawsuit dismissed by Plaintiff.
