    Hell, what insurer does NOT disagree with an adverse verdict. Farmers: shame on you, pay the verdict, pick up your pants and go home!

    I LOVE THE WHY IT WAS TOLD FARMERS GET YOU BACK AND SET YOU BACK. IN”(COURT)”
    WHEN YOU REPORT A CLAIM YOU WILL HERE FROM FARMERS ATTORNEY TO TELL YOU WHAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO DO. AND THEY WILL DO PUT THE PEOPLE THROUGH THE LOOP TO GET THEM TO WALK AWAY FROM THE CLIAM. A HAVE SEEN IT ONLY FROM ONE COMPANY FARMERS INSURANCE ONLY IN THE LAST 26 YEARS. THEY DO NEED TO LOOK AT WHAT OTHER COMPANIES DO.
    PAY AS ISURANCE COMPANY PER CONTRACT AND BE JUST.

    Not so long ago, Farmers own claims adjusters had to take them to court for violating California’s overtime law. Farmers paid them $40 million. No wonder customers are leaving Farmers in droves. They have fallen to 8th place nationally, when just three years ago they ranked 3rd.
    This is a company you really can hate. Why should you have to constantly sue your company to do what is right? Farmers gets you back to where you belong…IN COURT.

    What was once a proud company is now the Enron/Worldcom of the insurance industry.

    I am glad Farmers lost.

    On the policies we issue, the homeowners are additional insureds and the association carrier owes them the defense.

    Punative damages, you bet. Anytime you have to take an insurance company to court to get them to adhere to theier policy, they should pay. Afterall, they force their terms and conditions on the consumer, live up to your deal.

    Maybe I am missing the boat on this one, but shouldn’t have the condo owner’s CPL carrier defended them instead of the condo associations carrier since they were sued individually?

    I’m sure there is more to the story with Farmers but it is very unlikely that these two condo owners bothered getting CPL or any other type of personal insurance to dovetail with the condo association insurance. But if these gals get the money then the 85 year old Wassen can sue them directly for their personal liability in opening the garage door on her.

    Did the injury take place on the owners property or common grounds owned by the association?

    Why oh why would Farmers have to defend the two condo owners? I am assuming they were NOT the named insureds because Farmers DID defend the condo association-their policyholder.

    Did these 2 women have a condo owners policy that would have provided liability coverage for the injuries? Perhaps not and that’s why they went after the deep pocket-Farmers Insurance.

    When will people be responsible for their own ignorance.
    $10 million dollars?? Judges and juries need a reality check.

    Looks like the lottery comes in many forms.
