Allstate no longer suspended in Florida

Just days after Allstate was issued a suspension in Florida, Allstate can now once again write new policies in the state. Allstate sent an emergency motion for immediate relief to the appeals judge and it was granted.

The commissioner had previously suspended Allstate's authority to do business in Florida, and now he says that this is just another step in the process that enables Allstate to further delay production of the documents requested, and Allstate's motion was not unexpected.

He also says he remains committed to Florida's consumers and will get to the bottom of this issue, and take every action necessary to protect Florida consumers.

Allstate was pleased with the Florida First District Court of Appeal's decision to grant an immediate stay from the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation's order to cease writing new business.

This ruling now allows Allstate's more than 1,100 Florida agents and employees to continue to create jobs and serve their community.
