If you suffered property damage in Panama City, you may deserve compensation from your insurer. A Panama City property damage lawyer from GED Lawyers will ensure that your insurance company lives up to its policy.
Insurance companies look out for their own interests—not yours. Our team of seasoned Panama City personal injury lawyers will represent you, reviewing your policy and fighting for the coverage you’re entitled to.
Events That May Warrant a Property Damage Claim
Homeowners insurance most commonly covers property damage claims. There are several events that your homeowner’s policy may cover, including:
- Hurricanes and other natural disasters: Hurricanes are simply part of living in Florida but have the capacity to cause great property damage. If hurricane-related damage has harmed your home or business, you may file a property damage claim. You may also file a claim for damages resulting from tornadoes, tropical storms, and other natural hazards.
- Fire: Fire caused by defective electrical components, faulty appliances, lightning, or other sources may entitle you to coverage. As the Insurance Information Institute (III) notes, homeowners policies cover a wide range of fire-related damages, including those from wildfires.
- Internal water damage: If you have a sewage backup, burst pipe, leak from a hole in your roof, or other hazard that causes water damage, you may get coverage through your homeowner’s policy.
- Loss of valuables through theft: Homeowners policies generally cover the value of items lost to theft, providing that you file the necessary report to document the loss.
Standard homeowners insurance policies cover two broad categories of losses:
- Damage to the physical structure, including the roof, walls, flooring, and built-in components like plumbing, air conditioning, and electrical work
- Damage to valuables inside the structure, including but not limited to appliances, furniture, and electronics
Each insurance policy contains vital details. Our team will review your policy to determine which of your losses entitle you to financial coverage. We’ll also review any coverage limits that could affect your possible compensation.
Covered Losses That You May Get Compensation For
Homeowners in Panama City may pay their insurance premiums regularly, but many policyholders aren’t exactly sure what property coverages their insurer provides. As your attorneys, it will be our job to identify all of your covered losses, possibly including:
- Damaged appliances and electronics: Damaged washer-dryers, refrigerators, air conditioners, televisions, stereo systems, and other valuable appliances and electronics may entitle you to insurance coverage.
- Damage to physical structures other than your home: If your property contains a detached shed, garage, or other structures, then your homeowner’s policy could cover damage to those structures (either partially or completely)
- Damaged furniture: Couches, cabinets, tables, and other furniture may be part of your property damage claim.
- Damage to a building’s core structure: The floor, walls, ceiling, roof, and other internal structures of the home may be costly to repair or replace, and your homeowner’s policy may cover the removal and replacement of such damaged features.
- Damage to internal components of the building: Plumbing, electrical components, insulation, A/C ducts, and other damaged features of the home may also be recoverable through a property damage claim.
You may have other recoverable losses. Our firm will conduct a full investigation into your recoverable losses. We’ll fight for every dollar of coverage that your homeowner’s insurance policy provides.
Prepare yourself: certain losses may not entitle you to coverage. To identify such non-recoverable losses, we’ll review the fine details of your policy.
