So, you’ve decided on a Wrap-Up for your next project. You know your broker can secure the policies needed for a Wrap-Up. But that’s just part of the Wrap-Up picture. Are you sure your broker can properly manage the Wrap Administration duties?
Often Owners, General Contractors (GC), and Trade Contractors think Wrap Administration occurs only during actual on-site construction. That’s just not true.
For a Wrap-Up to be successful administratively, it requires a seamless and supportive approach all the way through from pre-construction, construction, closeout, and post-construction. As such, make sure your broker can provide a dedicated Wrap Administration Service Team ready to help throughout the entire construction project.

The Act changes areas of Florida law that have previously been viewed as favoring tort plaintiffs and insurance policyholders. The changes primarily relate to the timing of negligence actions and the mechanics of proving and recovering damages in personal injury and insurance lawsuits. In anticipation of the Act’s passage, plaintiffs have rushed to file lawsuits before the new law takes effect.
