(PRNewsChannel) / Tampa, Fla. / 2004 was a game changer in the insurance world – one that left State Farm and other major carriers with business altering decisions now taking their toll on the State of Florida, says Tampa property insurance lawyer Ted Corless.

“It’s been five years since hurricane Charley barreled through Florida’s west coast. While many homeowners and businesses have recovered, the property insurance business in Florida has not,” says Corless, who has represented State Farm, Nationwide, and St. Johns along with homeowners. “The property insurance landscape changed forever after that storm season.”

Ted Corless was in Punta Gorda after hurricane Charley made landfall. He’s seen the damage first hand and knows what home and business owners had to go through to get insurance companies to pay for repairs. Now, he is using that experience to educate homeowners about property insurance coverage and preparing for future storm seasons.

“When State Farm leaves Florida, the Sunshine State will be the only one in the country without State Farm coverage. That says a lot about what is happening here and this won’t be the end of bad news coming in.  And, it all goes back to 2004,” Corless says.

Corless has spent the last ten years representing Florida homeowners, as well as many property insurance companies from State Farm to St. John’s and Nationwide.  He’s gone to trial in dozens of cases and either saved or garnered millions of dollars for his clients in the process.
