Hurricane Milton Caused Significant Damage to Many Structures in and Around Sarasota
Our Sarasota disaster recovery lawyers know how insurance works after hurricanes and other natural disasters. We can analyze your coverage, help show that much of the damage occurred because of wind, ensure we can document when the damage occurred, and even manage your flood damage claim, too.
We can help you understand the basics of insurance coverage after a storm. These basics include:
- Flood insurance is the only policy that will cover flash flooding or storm surge damage.
- Hurricane insurance only covers damage caused by the wind, such as falling trees or flying debris
- Hurricane coverage is valid from the time they issue a watch or warning under 72 hours after the final watch or warning expires
- You could have insurance coverage to pay for your repairs, personal property replacement, and loss of use costs while you have to stay elsewhere
We can also help file rental insurance claims, commercial property damage claims, and business interruption insurance claims.
Major Damage From a Major Storm
Hurricane Milton affected millions of people in Florida, damaging countless structures. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Milton was—at one point—the Gulf’s strongest late-season storm on record.
Before landfall, the National Weather Service (NWS) predicted a destructive, potentially catastrophic storm surge, very heavy rainfall, and a few tornadoes.
Now, everyone affected is rushing to take the next necessary steps toward recovery. This means the insurance carriers are dealing with all of these claims at one time and may not be handling them efficiently or fairly.
You want someone on your side who can ensure your right to recover the compensation due to you is protected. Contact our team for help with your claim or claims.

Sarasota Policyholders Could See Issues With Hurricane Milton Property Damage Claims
Unfortunately, insurance companies do not always make it easy to get the money you deserve after a storm. This is especially true in areas hit hard by a large, destructive hurricane. Adjusters look out for the company’s bottom line instead of the policyholder’s best interests. This can result in many issues for the property owners who are fighting to get back in their homes or reopen their businesses.
Some common insurance issues after a natural disaster include:
- Significantly delayed response time
- Disputes that the damage is due to a covered event
- Demands for impossible or non-existent evidence, such as showing them lost personal property that no longer exists
- Unfair denials a covered loss
- Dramatic underestimations of repair costs
If you already filed your claim and ran into any of these issues, contact us now. We can step in and take over communication with the insurance company today. We will manage your claim and fight for the compensation you deserve based on your insurance coverage.
