Liquidation Claim Filing Information

How do I file a claim against Northern Capital? 

There are two different processes for filing claims against Northern Capital, a homeowners company.  Some claims are covered by the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association ("FIGA") while other claims can only be filed against the estate of Northern Capital because they are not covered by FIGA. 

FIGA will process loss claims relating to damage to your property which are covered under your homeowners policies and FIGA will cover unearned premium claims on your insurance policy that was cancelled by the liquidation order.  Both claims are subject to a $100 deductible. 

The process for filing a loss claim with FIGA is contact their office directly at #866-928-4310. 

Premium refunds covered by FIGA have been mailed.  If you believe you are due a refund, please contact the Receiver for assistance since their office calculated the refund amounts. 

Claims for losses not covered by FIGA (amounts under FIGA's $100 deductible and amounts that over their coverage caps), agent claims, employee claims, government claims and general creditor claims may become claims against the estate of Northern Capital so long as you have a filed claim with the Receiver.  The Receiver has mailed proof of claim forms. 

What are the deadlines for filing a claim? 

The Receiver's deadline for filing a claim against the estate of Northern Capital is April 30, 2011.  The deadline for FIGA to settle claims is one year after the Receiver's deadline per Section 631.68, Florida Statutes.  Since the Receiver's deadline is April 20, 2011, FIGA's deadline for settling claims is April 30, 2012 unless a lawsuit was initiated. 

How do I obtain a proof of claim form? 

The Receiver has mailed proof of claim forms.  If you did not receive a proof of claim form and need one, please contact the Receiver by using our "Contact Us" form.  Alternatively, you may contact the Receiver at #850-413-3081 (toll-free to Florida Residents by calling #800-882-3054).
