PIA files formal complaint against law firm for unethical ads

December 20, 2012

Earlier this month, PIA called for the retraction of an ad that claimed agents were at fault for a lack of business interruption coverage after Sandy. Since then, your association filed a formal complaint with the New York State Supreme Court Appellate Division against the law firm for producing false, deceptive and misleading ads in the Sandy-affected market.

PIA stands vigilant against erroneous and offensive advertising that paints agents as anything other than what they are: ethical, hardworking advocates for their clients. Additionally, your association has worked on behalf of all agents to provide information and resources to help educate and inform your business and personal lines clients about flood and other coverages.
