As many of you know, Michael Cassel, along with Paul Del Vecchio from PJDCCI, presented at the Windstorm Insurance Network ("WIND") 2019 Conference in Orlando, Florida, regarding building code compliance along with a number of related areas of law and coverage. Mr. Cassel effectively presented on the often misunderstood topic of Ordinance and Law ("O&L") coverage. He also addressed Valued Policy Law, matching, permits, and appraisal as they relate to the Florida Building Code and O&L as typically found within insurance policies in Florida.
