I recently moved from one agency to another.
The old agency offered E&O coverage to me as part of a written agreement.
My book transferred with me in phases to the new agency, but many policies remain at the old one, pending transfer.
Without telling me, the old agency stopped informing me of requests from insureds, mortgagees, pending cancellations, etc. on policies that remained there. Instead of leaving the hard copies on my desk as they've done for years, they were repeatedly telling me I had no paperwork to process, and were sending them straight to client files.
When I caught them at this, they said it was because I stopped coming in to process such paperwork, which is demonstrably false. They then said I was welcome to come inspect the hundreds of files, as if I'd be able to do that daily to see what they filed without keeping any kind of log for me.
I would think there has to be an E&O risk to the old agency, myself, and since the policies are transferring, the new agency. Feedback appreciated.
