The Effect of the Fire’s Source on Your Insurance Claim
The circumstances of the fire that damaged your property could affect the amount of damage your insurance policy will cover. Some common causes of fires include:
- Defective heat-emitting devices
- Faulty electrical wiring
- Cooking
- Natural disasters (such as wildfires or lightning strike)
- Arson
A fire claims lawyer in Homestead can help you understand how the fire’s cause may impact the fulfillment of your claim. By investigating the root cause of the fire, our team will make a plan to protect you from having your fire claim undervalued or denied. We can also help you collect evidence to support your appeal.
We Work with Your Insurance Company
Florida’s Valued Policy Law requires insurance companies to pay up to the policy limits if a home is considered a “total loss.” Our team can assess the full extent of the damage to your home to support your claim and hold insurance companies accountable for covering your covered losses.
If you have received a claim denial from your insurance provider, we can examine the incident to find additional evidence that may have been left out in the initial investigation. If the fire affected neighboring properties, we may ask for their insurance documentation to help determine whether your insurance company is acting in bad faith. Your insurance claim attorney may be able to use this as evidence to support your case.
Let Us Help You with the Fire Insurance Claim Process
Our team will do whatever is necessary to help you obtain the compensation you deserve. While every situation is unique, this may include:
- Investigating and organizing your case by collecting information like police reports, estimates for repairs to your property, and receipts and bills for items displaced by the fire
- Representing your case, whether that means corresponding directly with your insurance company or taking your case to court
- Calculating damages for covered losses, including the cost of fire clean-up and the cost of temporary living accommodations for you and your family
Obtaining compensation for a fire claim can be an arduous process. A fire claims lawyer in Homestead will work to help you get fair compensation for your losses.
