We have been with Farmers Home Owners insurance since we purchased our home in Southlake in Sept. 1994.
We had Farmers for our auto and home. The rates kept going higher and higher and the only explanation is that everyone’s insurance is going up, so pay.

I don’t think you can. Often settlements either have a secondary distribution for unclaimed funds or give the money away to charity.
