May 12, 2017Steven Badger, a partner in the Dallas office of Zelle, was quoted in a Dallas Morning News article titled, "Roofer’s Facebook video goes viral with leaky claims about paying deductibles."
In the article, which centers on a video of a Texas roofer advising insureds to not pay their insurance deductibles, Badger says, "It is correct that presently there is no enforcement of the law against waiving deductibles but the scheme remains illegal for another reason.
