Claim Help for a Mortgage Broker

[Surety Wizard]

I am a mortgage broker and I have just gotten a claim on my bond. I actually wrote a mortgage during a 11 day gap in my license and was called on it. I was completely unaware at the time that my license was expired due to a death in my family. Long story short I wrote a mortgage without a license. I am certainly guilty of this and not arguing this point. I just want to know what to expect in the upcoming months. The amount of the claim is 100K.
