No, it is not illegal for a homeowners insurance company to drop you. But they have to follow the rules for cancellations and non-renewals for the state they are operating in. For example, in Louisiana, if you have been with your homeowners insurance company for 3 years, they can't drop you. In Florida your homeowners insurance company can drop or cancel you but they must meet the minimum notification timeframes.

Can homeowners insurance specifically Travelers drop you in middle of claim and where can you get insurance if you have an open claim?

An insurance company cannot drop you in the middle of a claim. The state department of insurance sets standards for how long it takes for the insurance company to respond to a claim, and to issue payment once damage is verified. If they have stopped contact with you and have not given you a reason I would contact your state department of insurance and file a complaint.

Can your ex spouse drop your name off the homeowners' insurance if you are still on the property deed and mortgage?

Yes, The ex spouse may drop your name off the homeowners insurance, all the other party have to do is take out an homeowners insurance out in his/her own name. that way they know their investment is secure.Another PerspectiveNo. There would be a problem if there is a pay off in the case of a catastrophe. Your ex would have to list her/his name as the owner of the property and that would be fraudulent. If it was disclosed there was a co-owner the policy would go in both names. An insurance company cannot pay only one joint owner if the property is wrecked by fire or some other disaster. If you own the property and are paying the mortgage the insurance company would be liable for paying only a half-owner. You should consult with an attorney in order to get this issue resolved.
