If you sustained damage to your Panama City home, you need your insurance company to step up and honor their obligations under the terms of your policy — just as you do when you pay your premium on time.

We Can Help With Any Type of Property Claim in Panama City
The Panama City property claim lawyers from the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine can assist you with any type of property damage claim, including:
- Hurricane damage
- Tropical storm damage
- Wind damage
- Fallen trees
- Lightning and fire damage
- Ruptured plumbing pipes
- Broken water lines
To minimize its financial liability and losses, your insurance company may not settle your property damage claim in good faith or provide the coverage to which you are entitled per your policy.
Some of the most common tactics include:
- Total denial of your claim
- Partial denial of your claim
- Refusing to investigate your claim
- Sending unqualified adjusters to investigate your claim
- Undervaluing your losses
- Making misleading or false statements
- Discouraging you from consulting a Panama City property claim lawyer
Your insurance company may attempt to erode your rights to seek compensation by asking you to give a recorded statement and then using your statement against you, to deny coverage. It may also offer a token settlement in exchange for your signature on a full release of liability or mark a partial settlement check as “paid in full.”
The Panama City property claim attorneys of the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine hold your insurer accountable under the law and the terms of your policy. We fight for you and your right to recover the full value of your damages.
Filing Your Panama City Property Damage Claim
Once we review your insurance policy and verify your coverage, we will prepare your claim and demand for settlement.
Typically, the information we need to prepare your claim includes:
- Before and after photos or videos of your property
- Property repair estimates
- Itemized list of contents and personal property lost
- Receipts for board-up, temporary roofing, and related costs
- Receipts for disaster remediation (water extraction, mold removal)
- Receipts for displacement expenses (hotel, food, transportation)
- Receipts for other direct costs or out-of-pocket expenses
If you experienced a total loss of your home, most policies require the insurer to pay the full value of your coverage, minus your deductible and other allowable exclusions.
We will document your claim as thoroughly as possible and submit the demand to the insurance company. We verify receipt of your claim and push for an adjuster to evaluate your damage as quickly as possible. At that time, we will begin the settlement negotiation process.

We can assist you with filing your initial property damage claim. Or, if the insurance company has denied your claim or offered you a lowball settlement, we can step in on your behalf. In many cases, claims processors and adjusters are simply overloaded. In that case, we can prompt them to give your claim the attention it deserves.
However, if the insurer is dealing in bad faith, we will take an aggressive stance and compel it to negotiate an acceptable settlement based on the coverages outlined in your policy.
