[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1445726, member: 20599"] Head-scratching that a few of you think it's a grave disservice to let people know that there's a change in insurance law which takes effect Friday and (for claims for which notice is given from that point on) limits consumer protections, such as limits on the insured's ability to seek attorney's fees and interest [b]if[/b], e.g., their insurance company wrongly refuses to pay (or unduly delays paying) claims. Yes, the timing is bad but that's the law. You can argue over who it protects, whether it was good/bad, but if I were in Texas; had storm-related damage; and was in a position to notify my carrier in writing before Friday, I would be doing so. I would note that the Dallas paper is reporting that the "claims process" hasn't changed and that people don't need to file a claim by Friday or be precluded. That may be true but misses the point.
