Hawaii Personal Injury and Accident Law News and Cases

In January of 2009 HEMIC, a Hawaii insurer, was punished for deliberately failing to promptly pay the claim of an 80-year-old woman who had to rely on handouts from neighbors to survive after the company failed to honor her claim. A Kauai judge, Randal Valenciano, ordered HEMIC to pay $325,000, including an extra $250,000 in punitive damages, for not timely paying the workers' compensation claim of the Venezualan woman arising out of the death of her daughter - upon whom she was dependent for support. "They tried to lay low and hope the claim would go away" according to one of the attorneys involved in the case - a common insurance company tactic. Ordonez v. Hawaii Employers' Mutual Insurance Co., Circuit Court of the Fifth Circuit, Kauai, Hawaii, Civil No. 5CC06-1-000138 (court minute order filed 1/16/2009).
