Allstate Insurance

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging Allstate Insurance Company and other Allstate entities failed to comply with Florida law regarding the payment of personal injury protection benefits under claims where examinations under oath were requested.

If you submitted claims for reimbursement of bills under PIP coverage under a Florida motor vehicle insurance policy issued by any of the Allstate defendants, you may be eligible for benefits from the Allstate class action settlement.

The defendants named in the Allstate class action lawsuit include: Allstate Indemnity Company, Allstate Insurance Company, Allstate Property and Casualty Insurance Company, Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company, Allstate Vehicle & Property Insurance Company f/k/a Deerbrook Insurance Company, and Allstate Northbrook Indemnity Company f/k/a Northbrook Indemnity Company.

The Allstate defendants deny all allegations of fault, wrongdoing or liability. However, they have agreed to settle the Allstate class action lawsuit to avoid the burden and expense of ongoing litigation.

The Allstate class action settlement was preliminarily approved on Oct. 20, 2016.

NOTE: Class Members who have previously filed examinations under oath lawsuits that are currently pending had the option of opting in to include their claims in this Allstate class action settlement. However, the opt-in deadline passed on Jan. 18, 2017.

Who’s Eligible

According to the Allstate settlement documents, you may be entitled to benefits if you are a person or entity who is/was:

  • An eligible insured person under an Allstate Florida auto policy (or an assignee of an eligible insured person under an Allstate Florida auto policy);
  • Where the eligible insured person was injured in an automobile accident covered by the PIP coverage of an Allstate Florida auto policy;
  • Where the eligible insured person was requested by an Allstate defendant to appear for one or more examinations under oath; and
  • Where the payment of PIP benefits to the eligible insured person and/or an assignee was denied, in whole or in part, by an Allstate defendant because of the failure of the eligible insured person to attend a requested examination under oath and/or failure to produce the requested documentation or information at a requested examination under oath.
Potential Award

Varies.

Class Members are entitled to recover the remaining available benefits for each policy he or she is an eligible insured person or assignee. The claims will be reviewed and adjusted based on information Allstate has from its files and the information submitted on the Claim Form. The total settlement payments payable for all bills for each Class Member will be aggregated to derive a total settlement payment owed to each claimant.

Proof of Purchase
