Surviving a hurricane is a feat in and of itself. Getting the financial compensation you need—and deserve—from the insurance company after a storm can be just as challenging, especially if you need to repair a condo or apartment building.
When you need to take care of repairs and damaged property, you don’t have the luxury of dealing with the insurance company’s excuses. In this blog, our team of hurricane damage lawyers outlines common challenges in getting a fair settlement after a storm, the steps you can take to protect your claim, and how working with an experienced attorney can make the difference in your case.
Understand the Unique Challenges in Your Property Damage Claim
Property damage claims for condos, large apartment buildings, and businesses associated with homeowners’ associations (HOAs) work differently than a single-family property. Different parts of condos and other shared properties can be insured under multiple policies, depending on the type of damage, what part of the building was damaged, and more, depending on your unique situation. For instance, the roof might be insured through the HOA, but the dwelling interior under a personal policy.
Depending on your situation, you may need to submit claims through your HOA, your insurance company, or some other option. And without a clear understanding of your policy or policies and what they cover, you risk getting cheated out of the settlement you deserve.
