The industry seems to have no shortage of litigation on COI increases. One particular case is the
Gordon Feller, et al v. Transamerica life effecting about 70,000 policies. It is a CA class action suit that claims that TA is in violation of many things including elder abuse with their egregious MDR increases up to 100% forcing policies to be surrendered or lapse. http://www.consumerwatchdog.org/sit...aint_in_feller_et_al_v._transamerica_life.pdf
Joseph M. Belth has written on this case and others just like it.
Cases like this always are against the Company and not the Broker (thankfully)
But it seems like over the last 20 years when ultimately resolved they are resolved in favor of the plaintiff and the insurance company either settles or loses. Any thoughts on how to consul customers with policy issues based on COI changes.
seems that eventually they get resolved.
