General patterns reported on this type of claim, not specific findings about Southern Fidelity Insurance. Every claim turns on its own policy and facts.
Southern Fidelity Insurance Company was ordered into receivership for purposes of liquidation on June 15, 2022 by the Second Judicial Circuit Court in Leon County, with the Florida Department of Financial Services as Receiver. About 150,000 policies were in force, and all were canceled July 15, 2022. Covered claims moved to the guaranty association for the state where the property sits: FIGA in Florida, LAIGA in Louisiana, MIGA in Mississippi, and SCPCIGA in South Carolina. FIGA pays up to $300,000 per claim with an additional $200,000 for structures and contents on homeowners claims. FIGA claim status: 800-988-1450.
Often, yes, and the first step is identifying the right association. FIGA stands in Southern Fidelity's place on covered Florida claims, and a FIGA determination can be disputed with documentation like any carrier's decision. The claim-filing deadline in the estate was June 15, 2023 and the Receiver states that no claims bar date has been established, so later matters go through the Receiver's electronic submission process. FIGA lists June 15, 2024 as the legal deadline to settle a claim or file suit. Deadlines are unforgiving after an insolvency: date every document, request your complete claim file, and get advice quickly.
