In Florida, most homeowners insurance policies generally cover wind, but not water damage. This often means that you will need a separate flood insurance policy, and together, the policies can protect you against the two main problems with hurricanes of wind and water damage.

There can be a special deductible for hurricane damage in Florida, and an insurance company will not pay for any damages until that deductible is reached. The deductible for damage caused by hurricanes is usually set at a predetermined percentage and will be based on the amount of the policy as a whole.

Insurance companies have a tendency to engage in a number of bad faith actions that may include:

• Undervaluing or denying your claim
• Attempting to force you to accept a settlement under another policy
• Neglecting to pay your claim under the correct coverage category
• Delaying processing or payment or your claim
• Refusing to pay unless you sign a release of supplemental claims
• Incorrectly asserting that certain damages will not be covered under your policy
• Telling a homeowner they do not need legal representation to resolve their claim
