Legal proceedings have started vs Casus Investigation of Insurance Claims, which according to the Polish Insurance Association, misleads customers through their advertisements, by giving false information on insurance companies. District Court in Warsaw has already given the case a signature II C 620/09.

A few weeks ago PIU filed a lawsuit against Casus demanding an apology to insurance customers for misleading them and to the insurance companies for infringement of their good name.

PIU also called Casus to pay 100 thousand PLN for charity foundation of the Child’s Health Centre “Towarzystwo Przyjaciół Centrum Zdrowia Dziecka“ to support of funding of the Institute’s Library.
