If your home or commercial property has been damaged due to a hurricane, tropical storm, strong winds or even lightning, you may need assistance getting the insurance company to properly handle your claim. In the event of a severe wind or thunderstorm, damage to your home or property can be an enormous financial worry. When an insurance company denies, delays, or underpays your claim settlement, dealing with the aftermath can be overwhelming.
In general, homeowners face two scenarios after their home or property has been damaged by a storm. They can either continue to live in their home regardless of the damage or they may be forced to relocate due to severe damage making their home unlivable. When insurance companies take a substantial amount of time to settle a claim or refuses to pay the damages covered under a policy, it is understandable that many home and property owners become angry and frustrated.

We will work hard to secure a reasonable settlement for you and your family.
