Aren’t hurricane damage lawyers expensive?

Many people are hesitant to work with lawyers as they are unsure of the associated fees and lack understanding of how the hurricane damage claim filing process works. There is little to no risk to you, and the faster you submit your insurance claim, the easier it will be to prove the damages to your property resulting from the hurricane. Hiring a Punta Gorda hurricane damage lawyer will help you navigate these winds and waters correctly and approach your insurance agency properly. 

Does my homeowner's insurance cover hurricane damage in Florida?

Homeowner's insurance usually covers hurricane damage caused by high winds, hail, and rain. Unfortunately, most homeowners insurance does not cover flooding. Usually, there is extra coverage you would need to purchase if the damage caused by the hurricane is flood-related. We recommend reaching out to your Punta Gorda insurance agency at the first sign there might be a hurricane coming for your property. 

We are currently processing Hurricane Ian & Idalia claims that have flood damage, wind damage, property damage, and all the types of damages listed below. 

Am I entitled to more compensation than the insurance company initially offers?

In most cases, yes. Florida insurance companies always start with lowball offers to see if you will give in and settle. Do not take the first settlement an insurance company provides you. If you are taking on this endeavor without an Punta Gorda attorney, we strongly recommend reaching out to our firm. 

What types of Florida hurricane claims do you handle?

Hurricane Milton Claims

Hurricane Milton is impacting Florida, and certain areas are expecting to receive some of the most significant damage it has received from a hurricane. With all the damages just received from Hurricane Helene, many places in Florida have not had enough time to recover and remove all the trash in the streets. The flooding and wind from Milton will spark a whole other level of damage. The wind will pick up these items and blast them into the surrounding properties. Our Hurricane Milton attorneys can help you to submit your claim and get the maximum settlement possible. There will be an influx of claims submitted, which will cause delays with your insurance settlement. File your claim as soon as possible to get your money before your insurance company is too bogged down or bankrupt.

Hurricane Helene Claims

Hurricane Helene impacted Florida’s Big Bend Region as a category 4 hurricane causing immense damage throughout Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, South Carolina, and North Carolina making this the most widespread impact on the United States from a single hurricane. Millions were left without power and in some areas, it was total destruction. Some are saying it looks “apocalyptic” in specific cities. Our Hurricane Helene attorneys can help you with your insurance claim. It’s going to be tough to get the full amount owed to you during this process as insurance companies are going to be facing millions of claims. Let a Punta Gorda hurricane attorney help you navigate this process to get your money as fast as possible. We know the recovery process will take a long time in some areas and we want to help you as best we can.

Hurricane Idalia Claims

Hurricane Idalia was historical and caused significant property damage and flooding from Florida's Gulf Coast to the Georgia border.
