Reopening your Insurance Claim is your legal right for up to five years.
Here's what you need to know…
First off, don't be intimidated by your Insurance Company. And, understand -- the Insurance Adjuster they send out works for the insurance company, not you! Plus, there is a good chance your claim has been "low balled" or damages left out of your settlement. Call us to discuss your Water Damage claim, Fire or smoke claim, Hurricane claim, Tornado claim, Lightning claim, Burglary claim, Business Interruption claim, Condominium claim, Vandalism claim, and other property damage claims.
Helping you is what we do best.
If you are unhappy with the settlement check and you decide to reopen the claim, your insurance company will want you to go to Florida State Sponsored Mediation. However, for most people, Mediation may not be a good idea simply because Mediation is non-binding and, typically, the consumer has no representation, which can place them in jeopardy much the same way as going to trial without an attorney.
Your better alternative is Appraisal, which is binding. Click on these links to get a true picture of the differences between Mediation and Appraisal.
Clearly, if you believe you have a substantial claim to reopen, Appraisal is the door to open and to do this you need to hire an expert in claims evaluation; a professional advocate who is knowledgeable in working with insurance companies, understands the language in insurance policies, and is expert in estimating construction and building repair damages related to hurricanes, fires, and other covered insurance perils.
A professional Appraiser will help you effectively document the full extent of your claim (building damages, content damages, and additional living expenses). Plus, fully represent your rights against the insurance company's appraisers.
For experienced insurance advocacy and expert appraisal representation take your claim settlement to a higher level of competence.
