Biography:
Attorney Steven Bush has always had a leaning toward entrepreneurship. However, it was while working as a Certified Indoor Environmentalist in New Orleans during the Hurricane Katrina Recovery Effort that he became aware of the tactics used by the insurance companies to avoid paying policyholders what they were due. During this time, he also became aware of how little policyholders knew about their rights under the terms of the insurance policy.
While working with both homeowners and business owners, Attorney Steven Bush gained experience handling losses of every size. After years of representing policyholders as a public adjuster, Steven earned a law degree at Florida Coastal School of Law, where he was honored with the prestigious “Legislator of the Year” award as an active member of the Student Bar Association.
