Developer Sues Miami-Based Contractor Over Hurricane Irma Damage

Wednesday, November 1st, 2017 Excess & Surplus Lines Litigation

Developer South Beach Group Hotels (SBGH) has filed a lawsuit against a contractor over hurricane-related damage at a construction site in Miami Beach. The developer and its affiliates alleged that the contractor, Miami-based Allied Roofing’s Fidelity GBH Group, was negligent in its duties and had breached its contract. The suit was filed in Miami-Dade County Circuit Court this month. North Beach Properties II, one of SBGH’s affiliates, stated that the contractor left the roof on one of its properties unfinished at the time of Hurricane Irma’s arrival in the area, which led to extensive damage to the property.
