Divorce

Wrongful Death
Sex Crimes
The extension of the statute of limitations for sexual assault claims has resulted in more people coming forward, and more tapping their insurance companies for coverage of these claims. While defamation lawsuits relating to allegations of sexual assault are still filed, the look-back windows for time-barred claims have created ambiguous areas of coverage for some insured.

On March 24, 2023, Governor Ron DeSantis signed CS/CS/HB 837 into law, bringing significant changes to Florida's negligence liability system.

Dog Bites
Â Total costs for dog bites and related injuries reached a staggering $1.3 billion for 2022, with costs per claim increasing 32% YoY to reach an average of $64,555. However, there were 2.2% fewer dog-related injury claims made in 2022. Responsible dog ownership was cited as the cause of the decline, with the Triple-I attributing this improvement to education on canine behaviour. To reduce biting incidents and other aggressive dog behaviour, Triple-I suggests recognising dog triggers and starting training sessions early.
