Lorenzo v. Homeowners Choice Property & Casualty Insurance Co.
A homeowner's insurer's adjuster emailed a $35,000 settlement proposal 'contingent on management approval,' which the insured's adjuster accepted, but the insurer did not deliver management approval or a release until nearly seven months later, after the property further deteriorated. The Third DCA reversed the trial court's order enforcing the purported pre-suit settlement, holding no binding agreement was formed because the offer was conditioned on further approval and the release was not tendered within a reasonable time.
