An appellate court in California has upheld a multi-million dollar insurance fraud judgment against a woman who allegedly created sham law firms and then filed and recovered on insurance claims — even though there was no indication that the claims themselves were fraudulent.
|The case
Allstate Insurance Company and several related companies (collectively, "Allstate") filed a lawsuit against Christine Suh, Christina Chang (Suh's mother) and others, alleging insurance fraud in violation of Penal Code Section 550, which makes it unlawful to submit false or fraudulent claims to an insurance company.
