File Your Fire Damage Claim in Lake Worth Beach Before Time Runs Out
The days and weeks following a fire event can be chaotic and stressful. In addition, the state limits the amount of time you have to file an insurance claim. According to Florida Statutes § 95.11, you generally have four years to file before time runs out. Also, the insurance company might have its own filing guidelines and deadlines.
Do not let confusion or an inadvertent miscalculation damage your claim. Our fire damage attorneys will assess your claim and identify and comply with the correct notification and filing deadlines.
Our Lake Worth Beach fire damage claims lawyers will ensure your claim is filed on time for you. Contact our Ged Lawyers consultation team for more information on the timeframe and time limitations.
Steps We Take to Maximize Your Fire Damage Claim Compensation
You do not have to settle for less coverage than you are entitled to after a residential or commercial fire. To maximize your insurance compensation, we will:
- Speak to the insurance company and adjuster for you
- Meet all insurance and state notification and filing deadlines
- Refute speedy, yet insufficient, settlement offers
- Document your full range of covered losses in detail
We document your losses by:
- Obtaining photos of your property before the damaging event
- Taking photos and video of post-fire damage to your property
- Collecting receipts for temporary housing or storage expenses
- Tracking the temporary costs for protection from further damage
- Amassing receipts for personal property repair or replacement
Your policy will describe covered and uncovered losses. We examine these in detail to define your potential compensation.
How We Combat Bad Faith Insurance Practices in Jupiter
As a homeowners’ insurance policyholder, you have rights that the insurance provider cannot violate. To ensure your property damage claim is properly investigated and moves forward at a reasonable pace, we work hard to ensure it adheres to your rights outlined in the Homeowner Claims Bill of Rights by the Florida Department of Financial Services, including:
- Acknowledgment of your insurance claim within 14 days
- Confirmation of your Proof of Loss statement within 30 days
- Full or partial payment or denial of your claim within 90 days
Our lawyers will clarify your options if any of these rights are denied, including your right to collect interest if your claim (or at least its undisputed portion) is not paid in a timely fashion.
What Constitutes Bad Faith Insurance Practices in the State of Florida
To ensure you and your claim are treated and handled fairly, our law firm carefully monitors your claim to protect against unscrupulous actions. Florida Statutes § 624.155 defines bad faith insurance practices as:
- Unwarranted claim delays or denials
- Undocumented payment on your policy
- Unnecessarily delaying claim payment
- Misrepresenting any part of your policy
- Not acknowledging or replying to you
The insurance company can be held liable for intentionally mishandling your policy. If your claim was hindered by such actions, our lawyers will explain your legal and financial recovery options.
