Only days after Hurricane Ian swept through Florida, destroying entire communities, property owners had already filed insurance claims worth more than $1.6 billion. Estimates indicate that the total property damage claims ultimately filed will likely be closer to $40 billion.

With this major influx of property damage claims, which will not stop anytime soon, insurance companies have a lot on their plates. Unfortunately, this means that many insurers will not make the claims process easy for homeowners.

Not only will insurance companies have a backlog of claims to get through, but they will also want to minimize their overall liability for the damage from Hurricane Ian. They might try to value your property damages much less than your actual repair costs and losses. This is common, and we've seen it following almost every disaster that causes widespread damage.

The last thing you need is to deal with difficult insurance adjusters or receive less than covers your damage. You might need an advocate to ensure you receive all the benefits you deserve following this disaster.
