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

Christina Randall filed a complaint Nov. 13 in Orange County Circuit Court against Universal Property and Casualty Insurance Company, alleging the defendant denied the plaintiff insurance coverage after a loss.

According to the complaint, on Sept. 10, 2017, Randall's property at 7724 Casino Ave., Orlando, was damaged directly and/or indirectly by Hurricane Irma. 

Randall says she give timely notice to Universal Property of the loss and delivered a full and particular account of the expenses and losses. However, the suit says, the defendant denied her request of a claim to repair the damaged property. 

The plaintiff alleges Universal Property and Casualty Insurance failed to establish that it had reasonable proof that it was not responsible for the payment of Randall's damages and/or loss, and failed to pay the requested amounts for repairs and/or replacement.

Randall seeks trial by jury, damages of more than $15,000, interest, attorney fees, court costs, and all other just and proper relief. She is represented by attorney Thomas J. Morgan Jr. of Morgan Law Group PA in Coral Gables.

Orange County Circuit Court case number 18CA012389
