NO-FAULT ARBITRATION

In the past five years no-fault arbitration practice has significantly changed. As the industry battled fraud at every level, it became far more difficult to obtain a successful arbitration decision. As a result, court suits were commenced in increasing numbers which overwhelmed our judicial system. Judges soon became irritated by the high volume of litigated no-fault claims, and currently frown upon the filing of no-fault lawsuits. Clearly, the pendulum has now swung the other way. Success rates in arbitration matters have finally soared to a point where an ever-increasing number of arbitration claims are currently being filed (once again!). Insurance companies appreciate the firm's loyalty to the arbitration system which expedites early settlements.

NO-FAULT LITIGATION

Here at Rubin & Licatesi, P.C. we offer you the best of both worlds.
