Wind versus Water: Insurance

Hurricane Insurance Claims

by Jay Foster, Mississippi Attorney

In the history of the State of Mississippi, the idea that an insurance company could try and deny wind coverage because a flood also happened at the same time was not only against the law but it was preposterous.  However, given the election of a number of insurance company lawyers to our Courts, including our Supreme Court, the idea is not so preposterous.

The Mississippi Supreme Court recently had oral arguments on this debate.  You can view the video for the debate by clicking here.

We will watch closely to see how the decision comes out.
