Recoverable Damages in a Deerfield Beach Property Damage Case
Our attorneys know what to look for when it comes to identifying and documenting recoverable losses in a property damage claim. We review the policy to understand your covered expenses and losses. Then, we go to work documenting the money you need and deserve based on your damage and the policy inclusions.
Depending on the circumstances, you could recover the following types of damages following a covered event:
Structural Repairs
Your insurance policy should include repairing or rebuilding after structural damage from a covered event. Your policy could cover your home, business, detached garage, barn, workshop, or other structure on your property.
Structural damages could vary from relatively minor—losing a few shingles off the roof—to complete devastation from a fire or tornado. Other examples include damage to floors, walls, doorways, windows, and the foundation.
Repair or Replacement of Personal Property
Property damage coverage generally includes the repair or replacement of valuable personal property. This could include appliances, electronics, furniture, and more. Sometimes, property owners buy additional coverage if they have valuable collections of jewelry, musical instruments, antiques, or other expensive investments.
When it is time to file a claim, the value of these losses is often difficult to document or challenged by the insurance company. Our attorneys will help you handle this process and demand fair compensation for your losses.
Cleanup or Remediation Costs
Many types of disasters cause a big mess. Whether you need to remove water, eliminate mold, clear smoke, or haul away debris, these costs should be covered by your property damage policy.
If you work with a remediation company, they will likely handle these tasks and bill you. This could make it easier to show the insurer the necessary costs. However, there are other ways to document your expenses. Our team can handle this for you.
Relocation Expenses
If you cannot stay in your home until repairs are complete or cannot open your business at your current location, your insurance policy could cover many of the related expenses. For homeowners, this could include a hotel room, transportation costs, and more. Keep all receipts for expenses during this time, and we will help you identify which ones might be recoverable.
Lost Business
Many business owners have business interruption insurance. This could cover your related expenses and losses if you cannot operate your business and make money because of a covered event.
