Forced into Buying Unnecessary Flood Insurance?

Lawsuits for Force Placed Flood Insurance

Consumers may be able to participate in a flood insurance lawsuit if they were forced to purchase or maintain:

• A flood insurance policy which exceeded federal requirements
• More flood coverage than what was required under their mortgage agreements
• A second flood insurance policy after an acceptable policy was refused
• A second flood insurance policy even though they were already covered by a condominium association or otherwise

In some cases, it has been alleged that banks who forced placed valueless flood insurance on mortgage holders received commissions for these purchases, which were expensed to the loan holder. The costs of the insurance policy were either added to the mortgage balance or deducted from the consumer's home equity account.
