Forced Placed Flood Insurance Attorneys Investigating Excessive Coverage Claims

The forced placed flood insurance attorneys working with Class Action.org are investigating whether property owners were forced to pay for excessive or unnecessary flood insurance coverage. Allegedly, certain banks have been forcing their borrowers into purchasing or maintaining more coverage than what is necessary, and in some instances, earning kickbacks for these purchases. If your bank force placed a second, excessive or otherwise unnecessary flood insurance policy on your home or condo, you may have legal recourse to recover money spent to maintain this coverage. To find out if you are eligible, visit http://www.classaction.org/forced-placed-flood-insurance.html for a no cost evaluation of your claim.  

Several forced placed flood insurance lawsuits have already been filed on behalf of borrowers who claimed that they had to pay for the high costs of unnecessary or excessive coverage. Potentially, a home or condo owner may have legal recourse to recover money expended on these policies if their lender forced or coerced them into any of the following: purchasing flood insurance which exceeds federal requirements; buying more flood insurance than what’s required to protect the lender’s interest in the home or condo; paying for a forced placed flood insurance policy after acceptable coverage was refused; and buying a second flood insurance policy even though the property was covered through a condo association or otherwise. Allegedly, the high premiums of these forced placed insurance policies are being tacked onto the customer’s monthly mortgage payments or deducted from their home equity account.   

Consumers who suspect the flood insurance forced placed on them was excessive or unnecessary are invited to visit Class Action.org for a free, complimentary case evaluation. The forced placed flood coverage lawyers working with the site are offering this online consultation at no cost and with no obligation.
