If your claim is being lowballed, delayed, or denied, we can help. Our Tampa property claim lawyer will take on an insurance company of any size on your behalf.
At the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine, we help yacht owner fight for the compensation their insurance policy should provide. We will prepare claim forms and negotiate a fair and adequate settlement for you. We stop at nothing to get the compensation you need and deserve to return your yacht to seaworthiness.
What Is Yacht Insurance?
Similar to boat insurance, yacht insurance covers your vessel in the event of an accident. Your policy can be customized to meet your specific yacht and needs. In Tampa, you can add hurricane coverage to your policy. When you do, your insurance provider should provide the compensation your policy calls for.
When we handle your case, we explain the specifics of your policy. We also make sure you understand what you are entitled to receive for covered losses, and what you need to know about property damage claims.
How Long Do I Have To File A Claim With My Insurance Company?
Your policy should provide specific details on what to do in the aftermath of a hurricane that damages or destroys your yacht. Our yacht claims attorney’s familiarity with insurance law means we can clarify:
- How your insurer should handle your claim
- Mandatory notification and filing deadlines
- The potential settlement time frame
Time limits can be hard to understand and even harder to comply with on your own. The best way to ensure your claim is filed on time is to let our Tampa personal injury law firm handle it for you.
What If My Insurance Company Denies My Tampa Yacht Damage Claim?
You do not have to accept a denied claim without fighting back. Our law firm will help you prepare and file an appeal and even seek compensation via a civil lawsuit. We will review your claim and the documented reason for its denial. We will also take the mystery and confusion out of legal and insurance language and jargon.
We will not allow your insurance company to deny your claim without justification.
What Are Bad Faith Insurance Practices?
When your insurer does not handle your yacht damage claim to your satisfaction, you might attribute it to their simply being unfair. You may also believe they are overwhelmed with cases in the aftermath of a natural disaster.
If our yacht claims lawyer recognizes any actions that constitute bad faith, we will explain your options for holding the insurer responsible. Bad faith tactics can include:
- Causing unwarranted delays
- Failure to acknowledge your claim
- Failure to conduct a complete investigation
- Failing to disclose the fullness of your coverage
- Making unreasonably low settlement offers
- Denying compensation for a legitimate claim
When your insurer acts in bad faith, you could hold them financially responsible. We will help you build a case and fight for accountability and fairness.
