The Edmonds allege the damage to their property should have been covered by their insurance policy, but Safeco refuses to pay them for the damages. The Edmonds are suing for breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty.

The Edmonds are seeking an undisclosed amount in damages. They are being represented by attorney Bill L. Voss.
