During Special Session Dec 2022 Senate Bill 2A was passed. In it...
"Assignments of Benefits:
Prohibits the assignment, in whole or in part, of any post-loss insurance benefit under any residential property insurance policy or under any commercial property insurance policy issued on or after January 1, 2023.

This means that Assignment of Benefits are no longer an option to be used in property insurance claims. You are unable to sign over your insurance benefits to a third party if your policy is issued on or after January 1, 2023.".

There are many other things in this and other legislation that was passed and signed into law by the Governor.
SOOOOOOO, it appears DeSantis IS doing something to address the insurance problem. "Not a political statement". LOL!
