Insurance 03

ORLANDO — An Orlando property owner is suing an insurance company, alleging breach of an insurance contract.

Ta Thach filed a complaint Feb. 15 in Orange County Circuit Court against Universal Property & Casualty Insurance Company, alleging failure to fully perform under the policy regarding hurricane damage.

According to the complaint, on Sept. 10, 2017, Hurricane Irma caused substantial damage to Thach's residence at 4226 Anthony Lane, Orlando. The suit says Thach notified Universal Property of the damage to his property and he has complied with all conditions precedent to entitle him to recover under the policy.

However, Thach says, the defendant refuses to provide insurance coverage for the losses sustained. The plaintiff alleges Universal Property & Casualty Insurance has failed to perform under the policy and failed to fully pay for all of the insurance losses.

Thach seeks trial by jury, damages of more than $15,000, overdue payments, attorney fees and court costs. He is represented by attorney Robert Hoag of Morgan & Morgan, PA in Melbourne, Florida.

Orange County Circuit Court case number 18CA001694
