An insurance adjuster in Texas who used the renowned name of British underwriting entity Lloyd’s of London, implicating it in deprived compensation issues, has consented in federal court in Texas to put an end to the businesses he had launched under the same name. The matter raised legal and ethical issues within the sector, questioning the credibility of the business-taking practices.

The processes of insurance adjustment became a matter of scrutiny and raised eyebrows in the legal circles, leading to the final agreement of shutting down the businesses run under the borrowed brand name.
