$850,000 Settlement For Hurricane Ian Claim Dispute
In the aftermath of Hurricane Ian, a Pine Island resident faced a dire situation when their insurance provider offered only $10,000 for significant wind damage to their home—citing that the damages fell below the hurricane deductible. The turning point came when Herman & Wells filed a lawsuit against the insurance provider, culminating in a robust legal battle that ended with a favorable outcome.

$717,523.94 Jury Verdict Secured in Hurricane Michael Insurance Dispute
Initially offered a paltry $94 by their insurance company—a sum grossly inadequate to cover the extensive damages—our client was compelled to seek the expertise of our insurance dispute team. Lead attorney Jason Herman, alongside Warren Duffy, took the helm of this complex case. The case made it all the way to the courtroom where the jury awarded a verdict of $717,523.94 on a Replacement Cost Basis. This substantial sum was a testament to the validity of the claim and the severity of the oversight by the insurance company.
Before people hire us, they don’t know what they should do, and feel powerless to change the situation in front of them. After our clients hire us, they’re confident in the path ahead and feel powerful with our firm in their corner. We’re experts with lots of experience with cases just like our client’s. We know how to make companies settle. When they don’t, we know how to go to trial and win.
Most of our clients have never had a legal fight before. The unknown is scary, especially layered on top of an already stressful situation. We’re on the front lines of this fight instead of our client. We explain the process, we prepare our clients for each part of the case before it happens, we set expectations based on a lot of experience with similar cases, and we work these cases on contingency—so the client isn’t worried that there’s some legal bill in the mail. When a new client asks, “What happens if I lose?” our answer is always: you won’t pay us a single penny if we don’t win your case.
It makes us happy to get good results for our clients. It breaks our hearts when we can’t. When we’re done with a jury trial, our clients hug us and we hug them back. We talk in plain language, not legalese. We don’t like wearing ties. We do like to be called by our first names.
