Surety Claims

Disclaimer: Please note that all of the activities of the Surety are being done for investigative purposes only. They should not be construed by you as:

• an admission of liability under the bonds;
• a waiver, amplification, extension of any of the terms, provisions, or limitations set forth in the bonds;
• a promise to pay the principal’s debt in whole or in part; or
• an admission of the sufficiency of any claim documentation required by law.

The Surety does not waive your company’s compliance with the requirements of any of the contracts, any state or public works act, or other state statutes. This is done with a full reservation of the Surety’s right and defenses under the terms of the bond, at law or in equity. This reservation shall remain in full force and effect unless and until expressly revoked by the Surety itself in writing.

PLEASE NOTE: Many bonds contain unique and specific notice requirements that must be followed to perfect a claim against the bond. Bonds may also be subject to State and Federal notice requirements. We encourage each claimant to obtain an executed copy of the final bond from the obligee to ensure that it complies with the required form of claim notice, method of delivery, and timing requirements. Applicable statutory notice provisions should also be consulted. Submission and receipt of this online claim form shall not constitute a waiver, estoppel, or other release of Frankenmuth Insurance Company’s defenses relative to Claimant’s compliance with notice requirements of the bond and applicable law.
