Frequently asked questions

Your Questions Answered: Guidance on Homeowners Insurance Claims

What is homeowners insurance?
Homeowners insurance is a type of insurance policy that provides financial protection for homeowners in the event of damage or loss to their property, or from a personal injury incident on their property. It typically covers both the physical structure of the home and the personal belongings inside it in the event of a disaster or loss on the property, but also, in terms of personal injury claims, may provide coverage in the event that a lawful entrant on the premises is injured or dies.
What is a homeowners insurance claim?
A homeowners insurance claim is a request made by a policyholder to their insurance company for compensation or reimbursement due to a covered loss or damage to their property. This claim is filed to initiate the process of receiving financial assistance for repairing or replacing the damaged property.
What types of incidents are typically covered by homeowners insurance?
Homeowners insurance policies generally cover a range of incidents, including damage caused by fire, smoke, lightning, windstorms, hail, theft, vandalism, and certain natural disasters, along with personal injury coverage for incidents on the property. It's important to review your specific policy to understand the exact coverage provided and what is excluded.
How do I file a homeowners insurance claim?
To start a homeowners insurance claim, contact Adam Clark Law today for quick and straightforward advice. You may also contact your insurance company directly, as soon as possible after the incident or loss to report the claim. However, be wary that if you call the insurance company directly, you may be on a recorded line for “quality assurance purposes,” or the like, which may be used against you in Court. If you are uncomfortable with the questions that they are asking you (by design), then don’t hesitate to let them know you will be speaking with an attorney and reserve an opportunity to speak with them with your legal counsel at a later date.
What should I do if my homeowners insurance claim is denied?
If your insurance company denies your homeowners insurance claim, you can dispute their decision. You aren’t required to accept a low-ball offer from an insurance company. You can seek legal assistance to review the denial, gather additional evidence, and file an appeal or lawsuit if necessary.
Should I hire an attorney to handle my homeowners insurance claim?
While it's not always necessary to hire an attorney for every homeowners insurance claim, having legal representation can be beneficial, especially if your claim is complex or if it has been denied. An attorney experienced in insurance claims can navigate the legal process, negotiate with the insurance company, and ensure you receive fair compensation.
How long does it take to resolve a homeowners insurance claim?
The time it takes to resolve a homeowners insurance claim can vary depending on the complexity of the claim, the extent of the damage, and the responsiveness of the insurance company. Some claims may be settled quickly, while others can take weeks or even months. Your attorney can provide you with an estimated timeline based on the specifics of your case.
What should I do to prepare for a homeowners insurance claim?
To prepare for a homeowners insurance claim, it's important to document your property and belongings by taking photos or videos. Keep receipts and records of valuable items and any improvements or renovations made to your home. If you were injured at the home of another, you may have a personal injury claim that can be brought against the homeowners insurance policy. In any event, take photographs of the subject hazards, dangers, and notate any witnesses. Contact Adam Clark Law today to discuss further.
Can I appeal if I disagree with the settlement offered by my homeowners insurance company?
Yes, you can appeal if you disagree with the settlement offered by the homeowners insurance company. You have the right to negotiate and challenge the settlement amount. Consulting with an attorney specializing in insurance claims can help you navigate the appeals process and maximize your chances of obtaining a fair settlement.
What costs can be covered by a homeowners insurance claim?
A homeowners insurance claim can cover various costs, including repairing or rebuilding your home, replacing damaged or stolen personal property, additional living expenses if you need to temporarily relocate, and liability claims if someone is injured on the insured property. The specific coverage and limits will depend on the homeowners insurance policy.
