Hillsborough County Denied Claim Attorney
People buy insurance so they have financial protection in case of a disaster. However, insurance companies, like any other business, are concerned about the bottom line and commonly seek to avoid paying maximum compensation to policyholders. If your sinkhole property claim was denied, that does not mean it is time to give up. It simply means that it is time to take legal action.
After a sinkhole claim denial, speak with the experienced attorney at Corless Associates in Tampa. Having previously represented both large and small insurance companies across Florida, our legal team has detailed understanding of how insurers decide which claims to pay and which to deny. They use this well-rounded perspective to build solid cases for residential and commercial property owners seeking financial assistance for sinkhole damage.
How We Can Help
When you retain our services, we will:
- Thoroughly review the engineering firm's sinkhole report. Since the insurance company paid for this test, it is important to ensure the results are unbiased.
- Arrange for an independent geological investigation, if appropriate.
- If the independent expert feels your damage was caused by sinkhole activity, we will file a lawsuit against your insurance company for breach of contract.
- Depose people working for the insurance company on your claim.
- Remain by your side through neutral evaluation, a process in which an unbiased geologist or geotechnical engineer evaluates data compiled by the experts and gives an opinion about the cause of the structure's damage.
- Pursue alternative dispute resolution methods or represent you at a jury trial.
