Case Summary:Amica Mutual Insurance Company and Amica Property and Casualty Insurance companies are settling a class action about its uninsured or underinsured motorist property damage (UMPD) payouts. When automobiles are in an accident that damages their bodies or structural systems, they cannot always be repaired to the condition they were in before the accident, causing them to suffer diminished value. The complaint alleged that Amica did not pay or pay enough for this type of loss under its Washington insurance UMPD coverage and thereby breached its insurance contracts.
