Key Insurance Concerns
Smoke vs. Fire Damage: Insurers may also make a distinction between smoke and direct fire damage, affecting compensation. We make sure that both are accounted for in the claim for fair compensation.
Pre-Existing Condition Arguments: Carriers might claim that there was damage before the incident to limit liability. As trusted experts, we know how to collect evidence to dispute these denials.
Code Upgrade Disputes: If rebuilding involves upgrading to meet codes, insurance might not be sufficient to cover those costs. Our team helps you obtain full compensation.
Additional Living Expense: Finding temporary shelter and estimating living expenses can be tricky. We make sure your the adjuster captures all expenses in the recovery period.
