Del Toro Insurance 25th Anniversary

Del Toro is a family business and that has defined much of the path it has traveled to this day. The main reason for starting out in this industry has been to contribute to a community that needs us and with which we feel an eternal commitment. Growth would not have been possible without the support and permanent exchange with our community whom we have tried to serve with immense respect.
On the other hand, we have tried to provide a service that is also deeply rooted in family values because we consider that targeting the well-being of families in a society that is transforming day by day is essential. We have simply delivered transparency, honesty, trust and loyalty, which I believe have really been the key to being able to treasure the preference of our clients over the years.
Time really passes very quickly. We began our journey in a small office located in the west of the county. Today we are a solid company with a commercial presence throughout the state of Florida and an increasingly large group of franchisees who have opted to be part of the Del Toro family, making our business model their own. To our pride, the vast majority have been families that have turned to entrepreneurship and that, today, replicate those values of transparency, honesty, trust and loyalty to their clients.

The Pros And Cons Of No-Fault Law On Car Insurance In Florida

Dec 28, 2023

Florida adopted a no-fault insurance law in the 1970s. The state was not alone, with almost half of the other states also using this option. Today, Florida is one of twelve states that continues to use a “pure” no-fault insurance law, while other states offer an add-on or choice option for no-fault insurance.

Basically, no-fault insurance allows the policyholder to have PIP or personal injury protection that covers medical bills and loss of wages of up to $10,000. The policyholder claims their own insurance company, regardless of which driver was at fault for the accident. In other words, both the at-fault and the driver who had limited or no fault in the accident have the same level of coverage.

Each insurance company in Florida offering car insurance must work within the laws created by the government. This has a direct impact on the rates for car insurance in the state, which are currently some of the highest in the country. In addition, with an increasing number of personal injury claims car insurance premiums are likely to continue to rise, creating challenges for drivers throughout the state.

Del Toro Insurance works with vehicle owners to find the best car insurance premium rates. Our agents assist customers in understanding vehicle policies and ensuring they have the right coverage based on their vehicle, driving needs, and financial considerations.

Advantages of No-fault Insurance

One of the most important advantages of no-fault insurance is the ability for the policyholder to file a claim with their insurance company and have a fast payout up to the limit of $10,000.

This is only possible as the insurance company does not need to investigate the accident and gather information to determine if the claim is from the individual who caused the accident or the driver or drivers that were not at fault or less at fault.

This can be a lengthy process in states that have at-fault insurance laws on the books. Injured individuals could wait for months or years if the claim goes to litigation.

The choice of no-fault policies protects anyone injured in an accident from medical bills and loss of income if it applies to the specific case. However, the cap is at $10,000, which may not provide the coverage needed for significant and long-term injuries.

Another benefit of no-fault insurance is reduced litigation. Theoretically, only injuries or claims that exceed a threshold amount are eligible for litigation to help recoup the medical costs, lost wages, and potential pain and suffering of individuals involved in serious vehicle accidents.

Disadvantages of No-Fault Insurance

The most commonly cited disadvantage to no-fault coverage is an increase in fraud. Individuals can make fraudulent claims for “swoop and squat” or staged accidents as there is no investigation into the crash’s cause. These individuals typically work with disreputable medical health professionals to generate the necessary documentation of injury, meeting the criteria for making a claim.

The result is that any insurance company in Florida offering car insurance faces an increasing number of yearly claims. This higher level of payout results in increases in premiums for all Florida drivers. A higher car insurance premium then adds to the number of uninsured drivers on the road, which also has implications for insured drivers.
