Our Pompano Beach Lawyers Pursue Covered Losses for Florida Property Owners
While not every homeowner’s insurance policy is the same, according to Florida’s Office of Insurance Regulation (FLOIR), basic coverage typically includes:
- Your primary structure
- Outbuildings (shed, garage, etc.)
- Personal property (furniture, electronics, etc.)
Your insurance coverage can also include options and add-ons. Accordingly, our Pompano Beach storm property damage attorneys will seek compensation for the costs of temporary boarding and securing to protect your property from further damage. If needed, we will request compensation for additional living expenses (ALE) when your home is uninhabitable due to structural damage.
We Will Build a Compelling Evidence Collection to Support Your Claim
Your insurance provider will request evidence of your damages. We collect weather reports that describe the damaging event and its intensity. Additional evidence can include:
- Photos of your home before the storm
- Photos of the damage from varying angles
- A detailed copy of your insurance policy
Our legal team will build a strong case file, review your policy, and identify your covered losses. We also examine any other policies that might lead to additional compensation, including flood damage policies.
Our Pompano Beach Lawyers Also Handle Commercial Property Insurance Claims
Commercial property damage insurance claims can be as varied as homeowner’s insurance claims, so we will review your policy to identify its coverage options. Commercial property damage coverage typically includes coverage for the following storm damage:
- Roof damage
- Toppled trees
- Water damage
- Exterior damage
- Equipment damage
- Inventory loss
Our Pompano Beach storm damage lawyers will fight for fair compensation that lets you get your business up and running again as soon as possible. Contact our consultation team at Ged Lawyers to get started today.
We Can Help You Create a Detailed List of Your Covered Losses
Taking inventory of business losses can be an involved process, especially if your business machines and inventory software were damaged in the storm. You can also document your covered damages with before-and-after photos, videos, and receipts for your initial cleanup. Do not discard any inventory or materials, unless required to do so.
Our Pompano Beach Storm Damage Attorneys Can Appeal a Denied Claim
You should be able to tap into your insurance when you need it. Having your claim denied can be frustrating and aggravating. Some of the reasons insurance companies deny claims include:
- Named exclusions
- Policy lapses
- Filing too late
- Lack of evidence
- Policy limits
Filing an appeal is a multi-step process that typically includes:
- Notifying your insurer of your intent to appeal
- Reviewing the reason for the claim denial
- Filing the appeal and possibly an official complaint
- Collecting additional evidence to bolster your appeal
Our property damage lawyers can also help you file your appeal on time. Your insurance policy will contain details about filing your claim, including notification and filing deadlines.
We Can Protect You From Bad Faith Insurance Tactics
Sometimes, especially after a severe storm that affected a large area with many properties, insurance companies can inadvertently overlook claims or allow them to get lost in the shuffle. Other times, they deny valid claims for unscrupulous reasons.
If your insurance provider unfairly denied or delayed your claim, failed to investigate your claim promptly, or gave you an unreasonably low settlement offer, these acts could constitute bad faith. Our insurance bad faith lawyers will identify these tactics and describe your legal options.
