  1. How To Get Your Insurance Company To Pay For Storm And Roof Leak Damage Water damage claims can be some of the most complex insurance claims you will file. Your insurance company might not believe that your leak came from faulty roofing or a burst pipe. They might argue that they do not need to pay very much on the claim because of a variety of factors. In fact, the insurance company might argue that you are to blame for the damage that has occurred in your home. When you encounter an insurance company that does not treat you very well, and you must hire an attorney to argue your case. Where Did The Leak Come From? Roof leak insurance claims, storm damage claims, and even plumbing malfunction claims could be filed when your home is damaged by an onslaught of water. Sometimes, the water comes from your own pipes, or you notice mold from a tiny leak that was

  2. hidden in the past. Storm damage could cause leaks from your roof, or you might have water flooding your basement because of heavy rain. Your attorney must know the cause of the leak, and this information will form the basis of the case. Review Your Policy You cannot review your own policy. These documents are filled with complicated language that can be very hard for you to interpret on your own. Not all insurance policies are written legally, and your lawyer may find that your policy is not lawful. If the policy has loopholes that have been used by the insurance to avoid payment, your lawyer will argue that the spirit of the policy has been ignored. Your lawyer might argue that your policy is unreasonable, or they may find that the procedures laid out in the policy were not followed. Every step of this process will reveal what the insurance company has done to avoid paying you. The insurance company has several lawyers who will go to court if needed to avoid making a payment on your claim, but they cannot argue with the facts your lawyer has collected. Allow Your Lawyer To Speak On Your Behalf Customers often think that they can argue with an insurance company because of perceived or real neglect. However, the insurance company can ignore everything you say because they know you cannot take them to court on your own. When you hire a lawyer who speaks for you, the insurance company must listen. Your lawyer can not guarantee a satisfactory outcome, but they

  3. can begin negotiations with your insurance company on a resolution that satisfies both parties. What Are You Asking For? You are asking that your insurance company abide by the rules of the policy that you believe were in-force when you signed the policy. Again, your lawyer is arguing the posit of the policy. Payment for all the repairs that you need could be more than enough to close the case. However, you must be careful of illness or disease in your family because an insurance company has not paid for the necessary repairs after a water leak. Mold and mildew can be very dangerous, and your family could get very sick. If the insurance has caused members of your family harm, you may sue for damages. Ask your lawyer how to calculate the amount of money that you should request, do not send this information to the insurance company yourself, and do not contact the insurance company. The insurance company may settle with you out of court, or they will go to court to protect their interests. An insurance claim lawyer is often the only person who can help you when your insurance company neglects you and your family. It is best to contact an insurance litigation practice as soon as you can. Source
