Property Damage

Property Damage in Hollywood

In South Florida, a Hollywood property damage attorney may be someone to call when serious damage occurs to your home. Damage to property can come from many sources, including termites, tropical storms, wrongful acts, and more. Your home or business property may be one of your largest investments, so it’s no surprise that you have likely been paying premiums for property insurance to ensure you’re covered.

But what happens when your home is flooded or damaged? Unfortunately, many Hollywood homeowners only find out after a serious incident that they are not as protected as they thought, which is why many local homeowners contact Flaxman Law Group for a consultation with a Hollywood property damage lawyer immediately following damage to their home.

Types of Property Damage

You may want to contact a property damage attorney in Hollywood for many types of situations:

  • Mold damage
  • Wind and rain damage
  • Storm damage
  • Faulty construction
  • Smoke and fire damage
  • Denied claims
  • Hurricane damage
  • Flood damage
  • Water damage

Filing an Insurance Claim After Damage to Your Home

If you have sustained flood, wind, or any damage, one of your first instincts may be to call your homeowner’s insurance carrier. However, it can be difficult to tell what is and is not covered. Are you getting a fair amount for your damages—something that will cover all the costs of repairs? What do you need to do to file a claim? Who should you talk to?

What Happens After My Hollywood Property Sustains Damage?

It’s important to have a copy of your insurance policy and to read it to ensure you understand what is covered and what is not covered. You also need to understand how to contact your insurer and what your responsibilities are.

As you assess the damage to your home, consider taking photos and video, so that in case it takes some time for the insurer to come out, you have evidence. You may also need to remove some items to secure your home’s safety. Again, proper video and photos before you move anything are important.

You will need to contact your insurer to start the claims process. However, you may also want to contact a property damage attorney serving residents of Hollywood to get advice on getting fair compensation and to get an impartial evaluation of how much your damages may cost.

What Can I Do if My Home Has Sustained Damage?

Working with a property damage attorney can help. Your attorney can determine what fair claims might look like for damage like yours and can negotiate with your insurer to seek the correct, fair amount you need. An attorney can answer your questions and can ensure all the insurer’s requirements are met.
