The Monson Law Firm Obtains Voluntary Dismissal on Harvey Suit

The Monson Law Firm attorney Ronald Hornback recently obtained a voluntary nonsuit with prejudice on behalf of Lighthouse Property Insurance Company in the case of “Joseph B. Herrera v. Lighthouse”, pending in the 458th District Court in Fort Bend County, Texas, Cause No. 18-DCV-251288.  In this case, the adjustment determined damage from Hurricane Harvey fell below the insured’s deductible.  After a $50,350 demand was received from the insured, Lighthouse invoked appraisal to resolve the dispute as to the amount of the loss.  The insured filed suit while appraisal was ongoing.  The agreed appraisal award confirmed the damages were below the deductible.  Facing a Motion for Summary Judgment to confirm the award and dismiss the case, the insured, represented by the Houston firm of Daly & Black, agreed to dismiss the case with prejudice.  Please see attached Notice of Non-Suit here.
