Boca Raton Hurricane Insurance Claim Lawyer

Hurricane and Storm Damage Insurance Claims Attorneys Serving Boca Raton, Florida

Most victims of hurricane and storm damage fail to fully understand their rights or even how to properly assess all of their losses following a storm so that they can present this information to their homeowner’s insurance provider for repairs and compensation. The general thought is that the insurance company will do what is right and fair because that makes sense. Sadly, this is not always the case. When Boca Raton property owners file a claim for damages following a storm or hurricane, their insurance company will likely resist.

Vicious storms, like Hurricane Irma or Hurricane Michael, can bring about flood damage, fallen debris, and even fire damage. This type of property damage can be devastating and overwhelming for property owners, which is why it is necessary to retain an attorney to help file an insurance claim.

Many Boca Raton policyholders may think that they cannot afford an attorney, but the truth is that you cannot afford NOT to have an attorney on your side. Our experience has been that when clients work with our Boca Raton Hurricane and Storm Damage Insurance Claims Attorneys at Whittel & Melton, policyholders typically recover far more compensation for repairs than the insurance provider initially offered.
