All of the following are prohibited acts and grounds for license suspension or revocation in West Virginia, EXCEPT:

  1. Engaging in fraudulent activities

  2. Failing to renew adjuster's license by the due date

  3. Misrepresenting terms of an insurance policy

  4. Violating any insurance law or regulation

The correct answer is: Engaging in fraudulent activities

The correct answer is that engaging in fraudulent activities is indeed considered a prohibited act and a ground for license suspension or revocation in West Virginia. This includes any deceitful actions intended to benefit financially from dishonest practices and is taken very seriously within the field. On the other hand, failing to renew an adjuster's license by the due date does not automatically result in suspension or revocation, as there may be remedial measures or grace periods available for licensing issues. Misrepresenting terms of an insurance policy constitutes a serious violation that undermines the integrity of the insurance industry and is also grounds for license action. Similarly, violating any insurance law or regulation can lead to severe consequences, including suspension or revocation of a license, as it reflects non-compliance with established legal standards. Understanding these distinctions is vital for adjusters operating in West Virginia, as maintaining a good standing within the profession relies on adherence to ethical practices and timely management of licensing obligations.
