If a valid claim is filed due to mismanagement of funds, the surety company compensates the harmed party up to the bond limit. The solicitor is then legally obligated to reimburse the surety company for all claims paid.
Filing requirements vary and may change. Please verify directly with the Pennsylvania Department of State to confirm if they require the original signed bond to be mailed or if electronic submission is acceptable.
