The Law Offices of Harold B. Klite Truppman in South Florida represents Florida policy holders in hurricane insurance claim disputes with insurance companies — one of the many ways we fight for the people to hold these companies accountable for their negligence. Hurricanes and tropical storms, such as Michael or Irma, can unleash devastating destruction upon homes and businesses. They can damage a building’s structure or the contents inside the home or business, leading to loss of possessions and business income and displacement, among other things. We service claims for the entire state of Florida including during hurricane season.
Ideally, homeowners and property insurance would cover the damage the policy says it will cover — that’s why you dutifully pay your premiums, after all. However, it’s not often so easy. There is nothing we pay more money for and understand less than insurance.
A combination of challenging language and ambiguous clauses in homeowners and business owners insurance policies makes it frustrating for people to try to decipher just what to expect when they need to make a claim. This is, oftentimes, by design. That way, the insurance company has a built-in defense against compensating policyholders. What you don’t know can hurt you.
This is why it’s important to have a knowledgeable advocate by your side who can help you navigate the overly complex world of insurance — and one who will work with you for free. Our hurricane lawyers have decades of experience with insurance disputes, helping victims of hurricanes and tropical storms get the compensation they’re entitled to as upstanding payers of premiums.
