How can I find out if my neighbor has homeowners insurance and what company it is with?

I am trying to file a dog bite claim against my neighbors insurance, but I do not think he is responding truthfully about his insurance policy. He denies having insurance that has personal liability. He sent a copy of his mortgage protection coverage to our lawyer and claims that is the only coverage he has. He still has a mortgage, so he must have homeowners. How can we force it out of him? He has not provided proof of insurance or lack of from the time of the injury. If he truly does not have insurance, we are going to have to sue him because the medical bills are already into the tens of thousands. Please help.

You’re probably going to have to sue him. Then he has a choice–defend the suit himself or report your claim to his insurance company. I don’t believe his mortgage company would allow him to carry a mortgage without a liability policy, but he evidently thinks that if he stonewalls, you’ll just go away. That’s what litigation is for, and he will learn that this was a situation where he should have made the report up front.
