Florida’s bad faith reform went too far — it’s time to fix it

In an op-ed published by Florida Politics, Co-Managing Partners Aaron Davis and Jason Goldman weigh in on Florida’s controversial Bad Faith Reform law and how it tips the scales of justice against everyday Floridians. The attorneys argue that recent changes make it harder for individuals to hold insurers accountable for delaying or denying valid claims, shifting the balance of power in favor of insurance companies.

“The recent reforms didn’t eliminate bad faith conduct. They just made it harder to bring legitimate bad-faith cases to light. Insurance companies now have multiple built-in opportunities to “correct” their missteps before a lawsuit can be filed. That might sound reasonable on paper, but in practice, it gives insurers cover to delay, deny, and deflect without facing consequences.”
