Frequently Asked Questions

  • First, document everything - take photos and videos of the damage and keep all repair estimates and receipts. Then, file a claim with your insurance company as soon as possible. If your claim is delayed, underpaid, or denied, contact us immediately to protect your rights and maximize your payout.

  • Insurance companies delay claims hoping you’ll give up or accept a low payout. If you’re getting the runaround, we can step in, demand answers, and push for a fair settlement. The longer they stall, the worse it can be for you - don’t wait to get legal help.

  • Yes! Insurers often wrongfully deny claims by misinterpreting policies or using loopholes. We’ll review your policy, investigate the damage, and challenge their denial to fight for the compensation you’re entitled to.

  • Probably not. Insurers frequently undervalue claims to save money. Before accepting anything, let us review your offer. We often uncover damages and policy benefits that were overlooked, which can result in a significantly higher payout.

  • Yes, but it’s best to consult us first. Insurers may argue that repairs make it harder to assess the original damage. If you’ve already started, keep detailed records of all expenses and contact us to ensure your claim is handled properly.

  • If your insurance company is delaying, denying, or underpaying your claim, or if you feel like you’re not being treated fairly, it’s time to talk to us. We specialize in fighting back against insurance companies to get you the compensation you deserve.
