The Civil Remedy Notice is intended for use by parties who are beginning the process of filing suit against an insurer, when a party feels they have been damaged by specific acts of the insurer. The Notice is intended to meet a portion of legal requirements set forth in Florida Statute 624.155 which requires a party to file Notice with both the insurer and the Department at least 60 days prior to bringing an action against the insurer. The Department does not involve itself in the pre-suit negotiations or communications related to Notices as such actions are not within the scope of its statutory authority.
