Your current state is Virginia
the contract says insurance and taxes need to be kept up I am really concerned
So you are right to be concerned.
If the agreement between you and the mortgage company requires them to pay for home insurance, then they are obligated to do so. If that is true your best move is to send the mortgage company a certified letter demanding that they provide coverage. If they... Read more »
Approved for what? You should repost your inquiry with more information.
They didn’t offer additional coverage, knew I had nonowners & loaned a vehicle. Vehicle was damaged & nonowner policy won’t cover it saying they should’ve never let me drive away with it. Am I responsible for the damages to the car? Or are they because of negligent entrustment?
Normally "negligent entrustment" is when someone entrusts property to a third person who then injures you. Claiming to be the incompetent person to whom the property was entrusted is an interesting legal theory but it may not fly in court. You don't say how the car was damaged.
Only after due process.
My wife was hit from behind by an insurance less driver about 6 months ago. We decided to sue as my wives car was totaled. The person who hit us appears to have moved and after about 3 attempts to have her served we’ve had no luck. The total damages equal about 4K and we had to take out a loan... Read more »
You need to talk with a civil attorney who deals with auto insurance. I'm not sure you have much recourse other than through "mini tort", which is limited to your deductible.
One other thing to keep in mind is that if this woman had no insurance and is now no where to be... Read more »
I filed a claim online against an insurance company, and provided evidence with my claim. The claim was accepted and now I’m seeking a process server to serve the register agent of this business.
My question is when I have the person served do I have to also provide them with the... Read more »
Why don't you have a lawyer representing you? Is this a case of supposed no insurance by the at fault driver?
If you have an attorney on the case representing you, this question should be posed to them. They would have the entire file, the court's paperwork, and based on that, could explain things in the most meaningful manner. As a GENERAL matter, and without knowing more details, the use of the...

I bought a home in Pennsylvania recently, and there is some residual knob and tube wiring. My insurance underwriter did not do any inspection (due to covid), but is now threatening to drop coverage based on my disclosure.
I have had the home inspected multiple times, all of whom said that... Read more »
This is a question to pose to an insurance bad-faith attorney in Pennsylvania.
That will be determined as part of your settlement. If you have not accepted a property settlement offer you can negotiate to keep the vehicle. They will likely reduce their offer by what they assess the salvage value of the vehicle to be.
Life estate tenant has own homeowner dwelling policy, listed as insured full dwelling coverage on home and property, but remainder men are not covered at all. Is it legal that we can purchase our own policy to protect our interest?
There is nothing illegal about the remaindermen being insured for property loss. But you will have to carefully find a willing insurance company that will inure a dwelling in which there is an occupany that is not the insured. When you get the policy, read it.
Can a lawyer ask for your insurance coverages without specific reason given? He has a client that was injured on a job site. The lawyer sent this out to over 24 companies. Nobody has heard of this person. There weren’t any injury reports for any trades on that job.
A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. From your description, it's possible the lawyer did an intake interview with an injury claimant but was unable to ascertain details as to property owner or applicable insurance. If they're doing this to... Read more »

An insurance company has a right to refuse payment on an accident claim if the driver did not have a valid license. You admit that your husband did not have a valid license at the time of the accident. Your insurance company may well be refusing to issue a certificate of coverage but that refusal... Read more »
The manager & owner of the apartment complex want to call the police and say it is a hit & run. I offered to pay for the repair, but they don't want to do it that way. What should I do?
if while driving your car you cause damage you have to leave word on how to contact you.
Yes, technically it is a Hit and Run.
i assume your position is that you didn't see any damage and would not have known who to contact.......unlike hitting a car and leaving a note for the... Read more »
I am 26 living in NC and I don't have a single traffic ticket or violation so far and clean on my criminal records. Today I got a speeding citation(GS 20-141(J1)) on highway for driving 20mph over the limit of 65mph and was given court date. I am worried if this will impact my career since as... Read more »
Most counties reduce speeding tickets to give people an incentive to go ahead and take care of them. Technically, speeding at a high enough speed is treated as a criminal charge and, if convicted, would show up on a background check. Getting it reduced would address this and is usually how traffic... Read more »
He drove my car while I was out of the country. Just waiting for my insurance to call back.
It depends on your carrier. Your insurance only covers "licensed drivers." Given that his license was revoked, your brother was NOT a licensed driver. Any carrier could use such an opportunity to legitimately deny a claim. That you were unaware is irrelevant unless he stole the car.... Read more »
No one responds. No one will help. There are hundreds that that need help and no one gets back to us.

I was having trouble getting my older boat insured. My friend/agent said he would probably just put his name on it so we could get it insured. Mind you, he has nothing to do with the boat nor has he invested in it. He strictly put his name on it to get it insured. The boat sank. Insurance company... Read more »
Reading between the lines I have a feeling that your "friend/agent" works for the insurance company; am I right?
If so you can file a complaint against your agent with the Department of Financial Services, Division of Insurance Regulation.
The 18 wheeler left the scene to avoid repercussions. The accident was ruled not at fault. Will my insurance go up as a result? The damage was around $3300 charged to my insurance with a diminished value claim as well.
A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. But ANY attorney might not have a universal answer because the way these are treated can vary by carrier. It's in your favor that you were not the at-fault driver so far as liability goes - that would be more... Read more »
Hi,
I'm shopping around for Auto Insurance in PA; considering Progressive. I also like to ride bike. Hopefully, I'd never need it, but if a motorist injures me while I'm riding bike and they are at fault, would I be covered by Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage... Read more »
Short answer yes. Uninsured underinsured covers you if the driver running into you has no insurance or too little. If you have more than one car in your household get "stacking" --the best deal in car nsurance. It multiplies the coverage you had for UM/UIM by the number of cars, and... Read more »
