Residential Insurance Claims

Your residence is your home and your safe space. It is the roof over your head and holds your family, possible pets, and belongings. Something happening to your home can be stressful and traumatizing enough. Filing a claim to make sure you get compensation for your loss may seem like another tedious journey to go on, yet it is necessary. Repairs can cost thousands, and insurance helps provide you with the money needed to repair and replace what was taken or destroyed.

Residential insurance claims cover the value of your home and belongings if something happens. This includes damage that occurred through natural causes, such as hurricanes, or unnatural causes, such as vandalism or theft.

When it comes to filing a residential insurance claim, there are a few steps you should always remember.
1. Safety is the priority. Many of the events that caused the property damages can be surrounded by unsafe situations. Always be sure to stay as safe as possible.
2. Document your losses. This is needed for the insurance company to assess the value of what was lost.
3. Hire an insurance claims attorney. Once the event occurs, an insurance claims attorney will contact your insurance company on your behalf and begin the claim process. This step is crucial to ensure that your claim is handled properly and that you receive highest possible recovery.

Regardless of what the event was that caused the property damage and loss, remember these steps to follow.
