SC21045 - Deer v. National General Ins. Co. (“The primary issue in this certified appeal is whether an insurance broker has a duty to inform its clients that their homeowners insurance provider intends not to renew their insurance policy. The plaintiffs, Lee Deer and Keleen Deer, appeal from the Appellate Court’s judgment affirming the trial court’s judgments in favor of the defendants Kevin Trahan and his insurance brokerage firm, The Trahan Agency, Inc. The plaintiffs claim that the Appellate Court incorrectly concluded that their long-standing and special relationship with the defendants failed to create a legal duty that required the defendants to provide them with notice of the impending nonrenewal in this case. We disagree and affirm the judgment of the Appellate Court.

The Appellate Court correctly concluded that the defendants did not owe the plaintiffs a duty to provide them with notice of N Co.’s impending nonrenewal of their homeowners insurance policy under the circumstances of this case, and, accordingly, this court affirmed the Appellate Court’s judgment.”)
