PICA Claim Philosophy The expeditious settlement of meritorious claims and aggressive defense of those without merit is the guiding principle of PICA's claim philosophy. We facilitate this by: Early identification of liability, or lack of merit; Establishing damage information sooner rather than later; Moving toward early disposition of non-meritorious claims by motion, voluntary dismissal or other means of dispute resolution; Use of jury trial for those cases evaluated as being non-meritorious; Proactively offering of fair settlement in meritorious claims and Vigorously resist in a payment of indemnity solely for economic reasons.
