Bill > HB2277

This bill modifies provisions relating to settlement demands in personal injury, bodily injury, or wrongful death cases. It defines key terms such as "extracontractual damages" and "settlement demand." The bill requires settlement demands to be in writing, sent by certified mail, remain open for acceptance by the liability insurer for at least 90 days, and include specific material terms. The bill also outlines requirements for the accompanying documentation, such as medical records and employment information. The bill specifies that settlement demands that do not comply with these provisions cannot be considered a reasonable opportunity to settle and are not admissible in lawsuits alleging extracontractual damages against the liability insurer.
