ORLANDO — Two Orlando property owners are suing a liability insurer, alleging breach of contract regarding damages from a hurricane.

Darci B. Brammer and John E. Brammer filed a complaint Jan. 30 in Orange County Circuit Court against ASI Preferred Insurance Corp., alleging the insurer wrongly denied coverage for the plaintiffs' property damage caused by a covered peril.

According to the complaint, on Sept. 11, 2017, the Brammer property and dwelling at 14391 Paradise Tree Drive, Orlando, was damaged by water as a result of Hurricane Irma. The Brammers say they timely notified ASI of the damage and were assigned a claim number. 

As a result of the defendant's conduct, the suit sates, the plaintiffs' dwelling remains in disrepair with missing drywall and no mold remediation. The plaintiffs allege ASI Preferred Insurance has denied to pay a covered claim for the repair and/or replacement of drywall, carpets, furniture and mold remediation and duct work to the Brammers' property.

The Brammers seek trial by jury and seek damages greater than $15,000, plus interest, costs, attorney fees and all other just and proper relief. They are represented by attorney Jennifer A. Englert of The Orlando Law Group in Orlando.

Orange County Circuit Court case number 19-CA-001277
