Florida's Hurricane Claim Deadlines Are Short
Florida law requires you to give your insurer notice of a property claim within 1 year of the date of loss, and notice of a supplemental claim within 18 months. For hurricanes, the date of loss is generally the date the storm made landfall. Your policy may require notice even sooner. Report damage as soon as you find it, and document it carefully before repairs.
While your Florida hurricane damage claims lawyer will handle the legal aspects of your case, it is smart to document your property's damages carefully before contacting The Innocent Law Firm. Our legal team will investigate your storm damage and preserve evidence as we discover it to assert your rights to covered losses.
Civil Court Claims
If the insurer denies or undervalues your claim, taking the company to civil trial may help you achieve the results for which you are looking. Unsavory insurance companies may use several stall tactics that aim to deny you benefits based on the allegation you never filed your claim on time.
If this happens to you, The Innocent Law Firm is here to help. If your insurer denies or underpays a covered claim, we can file suit for breach of the policy and, where the facts support it, pursue the insurer's statutory obligations to act in good faith.
An Untimely Claim Negatively Impacts the Strategy
Filing a property damage claim as soon as possible is critical to the outcome of your case since you can forfeit your rights to a civil award. If your insurer argues that you reported the claim too late, the question may become whether the delay actually prevented the insurer from investigating. We can review the timeline and the evidence with you.
If so, your Florida hurricane damage claims lawyer will work toward proving that the insurer will not suffer harm by carrying out a property damage investigation. Typically, The Innocent Law Firm will preserve evidence that shows the insurance company is not negatively affected by a late filing.
Make sure you avoid common pitfalls by having an attorney help you handle a late notice dispute.

-
The insurance company is making false or misleading statements

You are not receiving the benefits for which you paid

Your insurance adjuster advised against hiring a Florida hurricane damage claims lawyer
