A Settlement has been proposed in a class action lawsuit against certain property casualty affiliates of The Travelers Companies, Inc.("Travelers"), regarding Travelers' handling of claims arising out of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The lawsuit alleges that Travelers mishandled claims, thereby allegedly causing class members to receive fewer benefits than those to which they were entitled. Travelers denies all claims and liability stated in the complaint. 

The proposed Settlement will provide benefits to persons, including but not limited to their actual or putative assignees,  subrogees, and lienholders (including the State of Louisiana), who had or may have had rights under a Travelers policy in effect at the time of the Hurricanes Katrina and or Rita. If you received a Notice via mail addressed to you, Travelers' records show that you may be a member of the Settlement Class.
