Defeating Insurance Denials and Bad Faith Practices

Insurance policies are intricate contracts written by insurance company attorneys to limit liability. Having formerly represented insurance companies prior to advocating for policyholders, partners Justin Cernitz and Candise Shanbron know exactly how carriers attempt to mischaracterize damage as wear and tear or pre-existing conditions. Cernitz Law deploys independent engineers, certified roof inspectors, and licensed contractors to construct unassailable proof of loss and enforce policyholder rights under Florida statutes.
