Wind Damage Insurance Claims For The State of Florida
Wind and hail damage claims have accounted for the most homeowners insurance losses of any cause over the past five years, with anywhere from 34 to 47 percent of claims per year. The claim frequency was more common than water damage, fires, and theft claims, and you will need a Georgia or Florida wind damage insurance claims attorney for assistance in recovering financial compensation for wind damage.
Insurance companies have a tendency to be very skeptical about wind damage claims and often undervalue damage and try to get people to accept settlements that are much less than what they are entitled to. You do not have to accept a lackluster settlement offer when you know that you are deserving of much more.
Common Issues with Wind Damage Claims
Florida is obviously a common site for hurricanes, tropical storms, and other adverse weather events involving wind damage claims. Hurricane-force winds can involve significant wind gusts that cause major damage to homes or businesses, including:
- Roof damage
- Water damage
- Structural damage
- Cosmetic damage
Many homeowners and other property insurance policies will treat hurricane damage and wind damage differently, so an insurer could claim that wind damage is not covered by a policy. People in such cases will want to retain legal counsel for help exercising their rights to seek compensation for these losses.
