Sunday is the 5th anniversary of Katrina. As always we appreciate the kind words.

I'll also note that a State Farm employee testified in a hearing held last year they had verbal authority from the NFIP to conduct their own brand of Flood adjustments. Dave Maurstad refuted that in a deposition according to the excerpts of the sealed testimony quoted in subsequent court filings.

These confoundingly curious flood adjusting practices that lead to the defrauding of the NFIP are not unique to State Farm either. Allstate is also complicit based on the court documents available in Weiss. In that case Allstate adjusters inflated the Weiss' property claim by including fictitious furs and jewerly in order to "hit the limits".

Unfortunately the Bush administration DoJ choose to ignore these clear cut instances of large dollar frauds preferring instead to concentrate on people that stole a few thousand dollars from FEMA.

There is no indication the Obama administration, which has yet to staff the US Attorney positions in Mississippi, is much more interested in holding these large financial services companies responsible for their actions. In fact he is more likely to let them pay taxpayer funded bonuses based on what we saw at AIG, which also similarily defrauded the NFIP after Katrina.

And to think the folks in the ivory towers of government and academia actually wonder why people are so pissed off these days. Out of touch does not begin to describe it.

Flood Adjustment Methods Discovered in Qui Tam Case : Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog

Flood Adjustment Methods Discovered in Qui Tam Case : Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog: "n addition to his testimony, Juan Guevara’s emails reveal State Farm’s intent to ignore FEMA Directive W-5054. On September 22, 2005, the day after W-5054 was issued, Juan Guevara emailed Jim Shortley because he wondered why State Farm’s proposal regarding the use of Xact Total for policy limit losses was rejected. Mr. Guevara quoted the language in W-5054 requiring all claims (other than those related to slabs or homes in standing water) to be adjusted using the company’s “normal claims handling procedures,” and he stated, “I read this as having to write a complete line by line estimate even if the repairs will exceed the policy limits.”"

Flood Adjustment Methods Discovered in Qui Tam Case : Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog: "Under the September 13 proposal, State Farm sought permission to use Xact Total “where a site visit was completed and [the damage] appeared to exceed policy limits.” But that part of State Farm’s proposal was not adopted in Maurstad’s final Memorandum. Rather, under FEMA Directive W-5054, Xact Total could be used only if the home had been in standing water for at least five days, or if the home had been washed off its foundations."

Flood Adjustment Methods Discovered in Qui Tam Case : Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog: "Specifically, Guevara asserted that “5054 is different than the document we received approval to use,” and in fact, that State Farm’s claims handling practices did not change as a result of W-5054 being issued because it continued to adjust claims based on the September 13th proposal. Guevara’s admission is an enormous and dispositive indictment because there is a very important difference between State Farm’s September 13 proposal and the actual directive that was issued by FEMA."

Slabbed has been dogged regarding its reporting on the Mississippi qui tam litigation involving State Farm. A recent post, Rigsbys file “Motion to Reconsider Scope of Proceedings in Light of Evidence Adduced in Discovery” – ask Court for additional time to conduct Discovery into “the Scheme,” provides some insight regarding the flood adjustment techniques required by National Flood versus how flood adjusters in the field actually do their job.
