New call-to-action

Last year, Hurricane Michael slammed the East Coast and the Gulf. This catastrophic Category 5 hurricane’s 160 mph winds caused billions of dollars’ worth in damages as it continued on its destructive path up the East Coast. Although thankfully, Hurricane Michael did not grip Pensacola as heavily as most of its neighbors in the Florida Panhandle, the city still endured plenty of damage from the storm’s gusty rains and high winds. The devastation of Hurricane Michael lingers in our minds as one of the worst storms of the decade (2nd only to Katrina), as we head into hurricane season in Florida next month. Yet, it’s amazing to some that Pensacola and many other residents in the Panhandle are still waiting for their insurance money to repair the damages to their homes and businesses. If you think your insurance company is playing fair–think again.

What Do I Do if My Claim Has Been Denied?

Assessing the damage to your home in Pensacola after a major storm like Hurricane Michael can be stressful and frustrating in itself. And what if on top of everything else you’re dealing with you find out from your insurance company that your claim has been denied? You pay your premiums on time, and your policy clearly states that you are covered –then why would your claim be denied? Well, there could be several reasons why such as:

-You waited too long to file your claim – Florida law states you have three years to file.

-You didn’t pay your premium – Check and recheck your paperwork and have backup.

-Insufficient documentation of damages – Always document damages and take photos and call on experts to provide you with estimates on the damages.

-Exclusion clauses in your policy – check your policy over and over to make sure you are covered.

As soon as your home is damaged from a major storm like Hurricane Michael it’s a good idea to speak with a public adjuster—before you call your insurance company. We can help you properly document all damages and make sure that your claim is filed on time. If you’ve already filed your claim in Pensacola and it’s been denied, call us today at (855) 321-5677.
