To our valued members:
Like all of you, we are encouraged by the positive developments in the public health situation. At the same time, we remain conscientious with respect to ongoing health and safety concerns as the vaccine rollout is underway.
Our team members continue to operate primarily in a remote work environment, without disruption to our core business functions. We remain well equipped and determined to meet your needs. We have recently made improvements to our telephone system to facilitate your direct contact with our team members when desired. Additionally, team members are available by email, as detailed in our online directory.
At this time, our Oviedo office remains closed to the public. We continue to monitor the public health situation and will communicate information about the Oviedo office’s reopening at the appropriate time.
We encourage all Florida Lawyers Mutual members to make premium payments by credit card to ensure quicker processing in the remote work environment.
For tips and tools to help you and your practice navigate these challenging times, please visit our COVID-19 Resource Center and Lawyer Well-Being Resource Center online.
Thank you for your ongoing membership and loyalty. If we can improve our service to you in any way, please contact us and let us know.

We understand this is a challenging time. Recognizing the financial impact of COVID-19, Florida Lawyers Mutual Insurance Company will discontinue charging interest on outstanding balances, beginning May 1, 2020 and until further notice. This change will apply to new, renewing, and existing policyholders.
Trust and loyalty are integral to the relationships we’ve built with all the lawyers we insure. We are grateful you are part of the FLMIC family. We will be here for you as we navigate the days ahead together.

To our valued policyholders:
Out of abundance of caution for our staff, our insured lawyers, and the general public, Florida Lawyers Mutual Insurance Company (FLMIC) has transitioned to a remote work environment.
We want to assure you that our core business functions are operational and will remain so throughout the course of this challenging time. We continue to be well equipped to meet your needs.
While we do not anticipate hindrances in our ability to serve you, we would like to draw your attention to the following modifications to some of our usual business practices:
- FLMIC’s office building in Oviedo is closed and will remain closed until further notice in light of the public health threat.
- We encourage all FLMIC insureds to make premium payments by credit card to ensure quicker processing.
- We anticipate some delay in processing regular U.S. mail and courier packages. Therefore, we encourage you to communicate with us by email whenever possible.
- We are limiting non-essential travel by our staff as much as possible and in accordance with local, state, and federal guidelines.
Your point of contact remains the same, whether that person is an underwriter, claims specialist, or any other team member. Our office telephone system will forward your calls and/or voicemails to the appropriate party. Staff members can still be reached by email or telephone, and our business hours remain the same. You may access the Staff Directory for detailed contact information here.
Please continue to contact us to provide notice of a Claim or Incident and afford us the opportunity to answer your underwriting or premium payment questions and to otherwise serve your needs.
Florida Lawyers Mutual Insurance Company truly appreciates your loyalty, patience, and understanding. We know this is a challenging time for everyone in our state and around the world. Please monitor the Operations Update section of our website for any urgent alerts or updates.

We are committed to serving our insured lawyers, as well as to protecting the health and safety of our staff and the surrounding communities.
