Defending associations in the courts

Insurance Defense

Carpenter, Hazlewood, Delgado & Wood provides an aggressive defense to homeowner association clients on behalf of a variety of prominent insurance carriers.  The firm represents existing clients as insurance counsel, and also represents associations that were not already clients when the carrier selects our firm to provide a defense.
 
The firm’s extensive experience with community association disputes uniquely positions us to understand the nature of plaintiffs' complaints.  We aggressively counsel our general counsel clients to tender disputes to their carriers at the earliest stages of a dispute, so that the carrier has the opportunity to be on notice and orchestrate an appropriate defense.  Many times, these matters can be resolved without costly and burdensome lawsuits.  In 2008, Carpenter Hazlewood was 100% effective at resolving its assigned insurance cases without litigation when we were retained before the plaintiff filed a lawsuit.
 
With our combination of experienced attorneys and strategies for success, Carpenter, Hazlewood, Delgado & Wood is uniquely situated to help insurance carriers provide effective, affordable defense for their insureds on any claim.
