TRIPLE-I LAUNCHES LEGAL SYSTEM ABUSE AWARENESS CAMPAIGN IN MISSOURI

The following information was released by the Insurance Information Institute:

The Insurance Information Institute (Triple-I) recently launched a comprehensive awareness campaign in Missouri, highlighting the devastating impacts of legal system abuse on the state's consumers and overall economy.

This campaign includes a brick-and-mortar billboard and complementary digital scapes, which can be found in high-density locations around Jefferson City.

St. Louis ranks sixth on the American Tort Reform Foundation's infamous Judicial Hellholes list, which highlights jurisdictions across the country where legal system abuse runs rampant. Targeted Facebook ads in St. Louis highlight affordability messaging, a key issue with Americans that underscores how lawsuit abuse increases costs and threatens jobs in Missouri.

"As we continue to be inundated across the U.S. by the likes of billboard attorneys preying on vulnerable Americans and increasing insurance costs for everyone, now is the time for further action from Missouri lawmakers," said Triple-I CEO Sean Kevelighan. "We have seen positive results in states such as Florida, Georgia and Louisiana that comprehensive legal reform works leading to market stabilization, more competition and better pricing of insurance for consumers."

Triple-I's billboard is in a prime Jefferson City location near the State Capitol, with high visibility for consumers and lawmakers, promoting the message about how lawsuit abuse increases costs.

Triple-I's billboard highlights that legal system abuse drives high insurance premiums.

Digital outdoor advertising complements these efforts, showcasing the role of billboard attorneys in increasing costs and reaching a wide audience through displays on bus stops and other urban panels.

Triple-I is working to spread awareness around the economic impacts of legal system abuse and urges lawmakers to enact meaningful tort reform in highly litigious environments.

This campaign reveals how legal system abuses drives up auto, home, and business insurance costs, ultimately hurting these states' economies and impacting consumers financially as costs of everyday goods and services begin to rise.
