AOB Challenges Master Dry Out, Inc., a/a/o Elba Abijana v. State Farm Florida Insurance Company, 2D20242205 (2d DCA June 26, 2026) KK TAKEAWAY: A settlement is not a “judgment obtained” under section 627.7152(10)(a). An AOB assignee cannot recover attorney’s fees based on a settlement alone.

BACKGROUND: The insured’s home sustained water damage from a plumbing failure. She contracted with Master Dry Out for repairs and executed a partial assignment of her insurance benefits. State Farm refused to pay and Master Dry Out filed suit. The parties settled, with State Farm admitting no liability and both parties acknowledging the settlement as a compromise of disputed claims. Master Dry Out then moved for attorney’s fees, arguing the settlement was the functional equivalent of a confession of judgment under section 627.7152(10)(a). The Second District affirmed the denial. Section 627.7152(10)(a) ties attorney’s fees to the difference between the judgment obtained and the pre-suit settlement offer. The statute defines “judgment obtained” as damages recovered. Settlement proceeds are not damages recovered. They are a contractual estimate of liability, and the

parties here expressly framed their agreement as a compromise of doubtful and disputed claims with no admission of liability. No judgment was obtained, and no fee award was available.

AOB Challenges – Excess Emergency Services Restoration Genie, Inc. a/a/o Matthew & Tiffany McDonald v. Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, No.: 4D2024-3346 (4th DCA June 17, 2026) KK TAKEAWAY: Emergency circumstances don’t excuse the statutory cap on assigned post-loss benefits.

BACKGROUND: Fourth District affirmed the trial court, holding that if an assigner acts under an urgent or emergency circumstance to protect the property from damage and executes an assignment of benefits to protect, repair, restore, or replace property or to mitigate against further damage to the property, an assignee may not receive an assignment of post-loss benefits under a residential property insurance policy in excess of the greater of $3,000 or 1% of Coverage A limit under such policy.

AOB Challenge – Reassignment of Benefits Black Diamond Funding Ventures, LLC a/a/o Quality Assessments & Logistics, a/a/o Dwayne Strong, No.: 4D2024-2533 (June 3, 2026) KK TAKEAWAY: A secondary or downstream transfer of post-loss insurance claims, essentially an assignment of benefits from a service provider to a third-party non-service provider, is bound by the statutory requirements of section 627.7152, Florida Statutes.

8 | IN THE

NOW

BACKGROUND: Insured sustained property damage and executed a written Assignment of Benefits (AOB) to contractor Quality Assessments & Logistics, LLC (QAL) to perform mitigation/ restoration services. QAL subsequently transferred its rights to payment and its right to sue the insurer to a third-party litigation funder, Black Diamond Funding Ventures, LLC, via a “Purchase Agreement” (a practice where financial firms purchase accounts receivable from contractors). When Citizens Property Insurance Corporation declined to pay the full invoice, Black Diamond sued Citizens for breach of contract as a downstream assignee. Citizens moved for summary judgment, arguing that Black Diamond’s Purchase Agreement was subject to Florida’s Assignment of Benefits statute, section 627.7152, Florida Statutes. Because the Purchase Agreement did not comply with the strict statutory requirements mandated for AOB agreements, Citizens claimed it was invalid and that Black Diamond lacked standing to sue.


Appraisal — Demand Requirements Citizens Property Insurance Corporation v. Elizabeth Diaz, et al., 3D25-1078 (3d DCA June 17, 2026) KK TAKEAWAY: A written appraisal demand must include an estimate of the amount in dispute as required by the policy. A demand that omits the estimate does not trigger the appraisal process.

BACKGROUND: Following a covered loss, Citizens issued a written demand for appraisal. The policy required the demand to include an estimate of the amount in dispute, with a description of each damaged item, the extent of damage, and the estimated cost to repair or replace each item. Citizens’ demand did not include that estimate. The trial court denied the motion to compel appraisal. The Third District affirmed. The right to appraisal is created by the policy and cannot be triggered until both parties have complied with their contractual obligations. Citizens did not comply, and the motion was properly denied.

Attorney’s Fees — Multiplier and Expert Costs Universal Property & Casualty Insurance Company v. Orlando Cisneros Dameras, 3D24-2233 (June 24, 2026) KK TAKEAWAY: To support a contingency fee multiplier, the record must contain evidence that competent counsel was unavailable in the 10 | IN THE

NOW

relevant market without one. Counsel’s qualifications and willingness to take the case are not sufficient.

KK TAKEAWAY: Costs for non-testifying expert witnesses are not taxable under section 92.231(2). Only experts who testified at trial may be taxed as costs.

BACKGROUND: Following a settlement, the trial court awarded the insured a lodestar fee of $389,362.50 with a 2.5 contingency risk multiplier, totaling $973,406.25, plus $138,658.25 in costs that included fees for two experts who did not testify. Universal appealed.


The Third District affirmed the lodestar. The trial court properly considered the Rowe and Quanstrom factors and supported its findings with sufficient evidence. The multiplier was a different matter. The trial court’s findings focused on the qualifications of the insured’s counsel and their willingness to take the case through trial, but did not address whether competent counsel was unavailable in the relevant market without a multiplier. The insured’s fee expert testified that nobody would take the case without one, but never testified that no other lawyers in the market were competent to handle it or would have done so on an hourly basis. The trial court acknowledged numerous other firms practicing property insurance law in South Florida. The 2.5 multiplier was reversed, and the case was remanded for entry of the lodestar without a multiplier.

Debris Removal — Emergency Measures

The Court also reversed the $42,658.25 awarded for the two non-testifying experts. Section 92.231(2) authorizes costs only for expert witnesses who testified. Fees for experts retained to prepare for trial, but who did not take the stand are not taxable without specific findings that their preparation was reasonably necessary for trial.

BACKGROUND:

Dri Force Restoration, Inc., a/a/o Andre Chow v. Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, 3D241330 (3d DCA June 17, 2026) KK TAKEAWAY: Debris removal performed as part of emergency restoration services falls under the Reasonable Emergency Measures provision and the statutory cap. It is not separately recoverable under the policy’s debris removal provision.

Chow’s home sustained water damage from two separate incidents, a shower pan leak and a kitchen angle valve leak. He hired Dri Force for restoration services on both claims and executed an assignment of benefits. Each invoice included a $134.46 charge for hauling debris. Neither Chow nor Dri Force requested authorization to exceed the Reasonable Emergency Measures limit. Citizens paid $3,000 per claim under that provision and moved for summary judgment, arguing it had satisfied its obligations. Dri Force crossmoved, contending the debris removal charges were separately covered under the debris removal provision and not subject to the statutory cap.

IN THE

NOW | 11


The Third District affirmed summary judgment for Citizens. Dri Force was hired to perform restoration services, not debris removal, and submitted its charges under the Reasonable Emergency Measures provision. Citing the Fourth District’s decision in Certified Priority Restoration v. Citizens, the court held that debris removal performed in the course of emergency mitigation work is part of those services. Removing damaged materials during mitigation creates debris as a byproduct of the work. It is not a standalone service covered separately under the policy.

Attorney’s Fees – Entitlement is Distinct from Reasonableness RM & Associates Consulting, Inc. a/a/o Quames McKinnon, No. 4d2024-2331 (4thDCA June 17, 2026)

BACKGROUND: The Insured suffered a water loss and executed an AOB with RM to provide services. RM subsequently sued the insurer, alleging a failure to pay the full amount owed for its work. The insurer defended the action on the basis that the policy required the insured to notify the insurer before authorizing repairs so it could elect to use its preferred contractor and that because the insured never complied with this provision its liability was limited to the amount its preferred contractor would have charged for the work. The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the Insurer and same was affirmed by the Fourth DCA on appeal with the Fourth DCA granting the insurer’s motion for appellate attorney’s fee under Florida Statutes, subject to the trial court’s determination of entitlement and amount. On remand to determine the amount of attorney’s fees, the trial court awarded the Insurer $24,866.17 in appellate attorney’s fees and RM appealed the reasonableness and necessity of the amount. The key issues in the case were as follows: •

Block Billing/Vague Time Entries: the billing records included vague entries (e.g., simply stating work on answer brief) without detailing the specific tasks performed

•

Duplicative Work Across Parallel Appeals: the defense firm was simultaneously handling another pending appeal involving a nearly identical legal issue. The firm failed to account for or deduct overlapping research/work, raising concerns of duplicated billable hours.

KK TAKEAWAY: Winning the legal entitlement to attorney’s fees is separate from proving the reasonableness of the amount. To sustain a fee award, billing records and expert testimony must detail specific tasks and demonstrate that hours were not duplicative, especially when counsel briefs similar issues in parallel cases

12 | IN THE

NOW


The Fourth DCA reversed the appellate attorney’s fees award and remanded the matter to the trial court to redetermine the fee amount based on competent substantial evidence.

Attorney’s Fees – FIGA Florida Insurance Guaranty Association v. David Hintz & Judith Hintz, No. 4D2025-0254 (4thDCA June 17, 2026)

KK TAKEAWAY: FIGA cannot be compelled to pay the portion of a settlement agreement designated for attorney’s fees, even if the insolvent insurer had agreed to pay it prior to going under.

BACKGROUND: The Insureds sued their insurer over a denied Hurricane Irma claim for breach of contract and demanded statutory attorney’s fees. Prior to trial, the parties reached a global settlement (indemnity and fees); however, the insurer became insolvent, and FIGA was substituted into the case. Similar to Wilson, FIGA took the position that the negotiated attorney’s fees portion fell outside the statutory definition of a covered claim. The trial court ordered FIGA to pay attorney’s fees, and FIGA appealed to the Fourth District Court of Appeals.
