FPP Managing Partner Anthony Perez and Senior Associate Keyondra Parrish secured a dismissal with prejudice in the Seminole County matter styled Katherine Hansen v. Defendant Insurance Company. Plaintiff filed suit alleging that Defendant breached the insurance contract by denying coverage for her claim for damage to her property resulting from Hurricane Ian. Defendant maintained its position on the denial of coverage based on the policy’s exclusion for damage caused by wear and tear and deterioration, and the lack of any evidence of a peril created opening in the roof that allowed rainwater to enter the property. In advance of her deposition, Plaintiff dismissed the case with prejudice.
