That is, if the insurer were formed in Florida, according to the then-existing Insurance Code of Florida, it would be a Florida domestic insurer.

All of the major insurane companies offer home insurance in each state. You can contact the company you already have insurance with to see if they offer homeowners inusurance as well. Another option is to look in the yellowpages and find the names of insurance companies that are smaller or will have local offices you can contact.
Generally the best thing to do is to secure the new insurance, and then present the documentation of the new insurance to the old insurer so that they can cancel that policy as of the effective date of the new insurance. Your new insurance company may take care of this notification for you. This sequence will avoid any gaps in your coverage.
Car insurance quotes can often be obtained for free on the official websites of car insurance companies. One should get in contact with major companies such as Geico and Progressive to determine which service is right for one's needs.
The state of Florida requires all drivers to maintain personal injury protection (PIP) and property damage liability (PDL) insurance coverage. Florida PIP coverage, also called Florida No Fault Insurance, pays for damage to your vehicle in the case of an accident, regardless of who is at fault.Understanding Personal Injury Protection in FloridaThe minimum amount of PIP insurance required for drivers in Florida is $10,000. The amount of coverage provided in the case of an accident is determined by the limits of your policy. PIP can also cover additional passengers in your vehicle, including your child, members of your household and other passengers who do not have PIP insurance. If a person riding in your car carries their own PIP insurance policy, their policy is responsible for paying for their injuries. Florida PIP insurance also covers your child if an injury occurs while riding on a school bus. You are also protected if injured while riding as a passenger in another person's vehicle. Florida drivers must maintain continual PIP insurance coverage while owning a motor vehicle in the state.Failing to Maintain Insurance Coverage in FloridaIf you fail to maintain the minimum amount of PIP insurance coverage required in the state of Florida, state law authorizes the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles to suspend your driver's license. State law also authorizes the department to suspend your vehicle registration for up to three years or until you obtain the required insurance coverage and provide proof. If your driver's license or vehicle registration is suspended, you must pay a fee of $150 to $500. To avoid a driver's suspension in the state of Florida, you must voluntarily surrender your vehicle's license plate and registration before canceling your insurance policy.Other Types of Insurance CoverageState law also require Florida motorists to maintain a minimum of $10,000 in property damage liability coverage. This type of coverage pays for the damage you cause to another person's property, in the case of an accident. Another type of insurance coverage includes bodily injury liability insurance (BIL), which pays for serious injury or death of another person when you are found at fault. If the injured party sues you in a court of law, BIL can also provide you with legal representation.
