EYE OF THE STORM.  Washington is thousands of miles away from Florida but even the governor of the Evergreen State understands the precipitous times Floridians are living in when it comes to hurricanes. How do you maximize recovery after a hurricane or other type of severe storm to ensure your family, property, and business is taken care of?  Policyholders have a right to receive the full benefits under their insurance policy.

The cause of the Sept. 2 fire, which killed 34 people, is now the subject of an intensive investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board, the U.S. Coast Guard, and other federal and county agencies.  A preliminary investigation has suggested serious safety deficiencies aboard the vessel.

Fire damage to your home, boat or business can be sudden and devastating.  If you have suffered smoke or fire damage and your insurance company seeks to deny, delay or underpay your valid claim, we encourage you to contact the experienced insurance lawyers at Corless Barfield Trial Group at 813-258-4998. 

Fire damage is a hot topic in the news.  A jury in Oakland, Calif., recently found one man not guilty of 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter in the 2016 fire at Oakland’s Ghost Ship warehouse but could not reach a verdict for the building’s leaseholder.  It was one of the deadliest nightclub fires in U.S. history, killing 36 people. 

The Ghost Ship fire tore through a late-night party in Oakland’s Fruitvale neighborhood that had been transformed into a ramshackle artist collective known as Ghost Ship.  The jury’s verdict begs the question, what is the duty owed to the public to protect from a fire?

Whether your home or business was completely destroyed by a fire or only partially damaged, your insurance company will attempt to delay, deny or underpay your property damage claim.

Homeowners and business owners should bring in a policyholder attorney to help prove the worth of their fire claims and protect their rights. Insurance companies rarely contemplate the hidden effects of a fire in your home or business when they consider your compensation package and initial settlement offer.

Besides the structural damage, fires can also damage heating and cooling systems, plumbing, and concrete or steel building materials.  Additionally, there is the costly damage caused by smoke, soot, and the water used to fight the fire. 

The Florida-based attorneys at Corless Barfield Trial Group will investigate your case, and consult with our team of insurance and engineering experts, to determine the full value of your claim.

We will fight for you in court to obtain the money that you deserve from the insurance company to which you have dutifully paid your insurance premiums.

Did you suffer property damage in a storm?  Is your insurance company offering you less than you need to repair the damage, or are they denying your claim entirely?

Our law firm provides skilled and knowledgeable attorney representation to homeowners, businesses, and condominium owners and associations throughout Florida who have suffered property damage due to hurricanes or tropical storms.  

One of the best ways to protect yourself and your property is to know your rights. Insurance companies in Florida use a number of different tactics to deny and delay payment for storm-related damage.  What are the pitfalls you should look for? Insurance companies attempt to dispute coverage for storm damage claims because …

1. damage was allegedly pre-existing 
2. damage was caused by flood or wind not covered under the policy 
3. failure to mitigate
4. damage was not reported immediately.

Insurers may sometimes provide only a portion of the coverage you need for your property damage and fail to acknowledge the severity of the actual damage with its associated costs for repair or replacement. As a result, if your residence or business has suffered storm damage, it is best to have an attorney representing your rights and interests. 

Corless Barfield handles hundreds of cases for insureds who are in need of advice or representation against insurance companies after storm damage. We’re ready to investigate your claim, gather evidence to support your position, and help you achieve the best possible outcome at trial.
