FC&S Legal has published "Fla. Supreme Court Finds Insurers Liable From Onset of Construction Defect Pre-Suit Process," originally published on Daily Business Review, in its Eye on the Experts column.

Here, the author explains, the Florida Supreme Court addressed whether, in Florida construction defect cases, the statutory process embodied by Chapter 558 of the Florida Statutes, which is a condition precedent to commencing litigation, constitutes a "suit" that must be recognized and adjusted by a contractor's liability insurer.
