Sinkhole Insurance Claims
Hiring an Experienced Sinkhole Attorney with Boggs Law Group
A sinkhole can cause catastrophic damage and quickly devastate a home. Immediate attention is crucial, but often, insurance companies may deny the presence of sinkhole activity, leaving your home to deteriorate further. Navigating a sinkhole claim without professional assistance can be incredibly challenging, whether you’ve been denied coverage or are trying to repair your home. An experienced sinkhole attorney can help you take the necessary steps to recover what you are owed under your property insurance policy.
Sinkhole claims are a constantly evolving area of law. In 2011, new sinkhole laws were enacted in Florida, significantly altering how these claims are handled. The Florida Supreme Court is still interpreting some of these new laws, adding to the complexity of disputing such claims. Insurance companies will have experts working diligently on their behalf to protect their interests, so it’s crucial to ensure your rights are equally safeguarded. To determine if a sinkhole has occurred, insurance companies often involve geology and engineering experts. As the claim progresses, more specialists hired by the insurance company may become involved.
Homeowners often struggle to understand the process and decipher experts’ reports. Additionally, an insurance company may acknowledge sinkhole activity but deny coverage for above-ground damages. At Boggs Law Group, we can help you navigate these complexities, ensuring that your rights are protected and you receive the coverage you deserve. Contact us today to get the support you need for your sinkhole claim.
Don’t let the insurance company intimidate or treat you or your client unfairly.
