Jacksonville Property Damage Lawyers

Florida homeowners everywhere along the coast, including in the Jacksonville area, are familiar with standard operating procedures at home insurance companies. Many long-time Jacksonville residents have had to deal with storm damage or other property damage claims in the past, so you may already be familiar with the tactics insurers use to undervalue or deny property damage claims.

At Kanner & Pintaluga, we believe policyholders deserve respect and fair treatment. You’ve paid your premiums for all these years, and you are entitled to some loyalty for holding up your end of the bargain. We’ll fight to ensure you’re not left with the repair bill for property damage that should be covered.

We Fight for Homeowners After Hurricanes and Tropical Storms in Jacksonville

Jacksonville residents are no strangers to the caprices of nature, with hurricanes and tropical storms bringing their share of challenges. These storms often leave a trail of property destruction—damaged roofs, broken windows, flooding and more.

The emotional and financial toll on families can be overwhelming, especially when insurers refuse to provide fair claim payments. In the wake of such chaos, dealing with insurance companies adds another layer of stress. Homeowners frequently encounter hurdles when filing claims for property damage, facing delays, undervaluation of damage or outright denials.

Kanner & Pintaluga recognizes these challenges and stands ready to support Jacksonville homeowners through the complexities of insurance claims to ensure they receive the compensation needed to restore their homes and lives.

Why Insurance Companies Drop the Ball After Hurricanes in Jacksonville

When disaster strikes, insurance companies often find themselves inundated with claims, leading to a host of problems for policyholders. They may resort to hiring temporary adjusters, whose lack of experience can result in errors and underestimates.

There’s also an inescapable conflict of interest, as insurance company employees may face pressures to minimize payouts to protect precarious bottom lines.

These practices can unjustly leave homeowners without the necessary funds for proper repairs, forcing them to shoulder the financial burden. Our attorneys at Kanner & Pintaluga understand these tactics and are prepared to take on insurance companies, ensuring they uphold their obligations to policyholders.

Other Types of Property Damage Common in Florida

The ravages of storms are not the only property damage events Florida homeowners may encounter. House fires can be particularly destructive, not only causing char and smoke damage but also extensive water damage from firefighting efforts.

Water damage from plumbing issues, such as burst pipes or leaks, can cause significant harm to your home if not addressed promptly. Even when plumbing damage is repaired, the risk of mold infestations is extraordinarily high. Florida homeowners should recognize that mold resulting from a named peril in their policy is covered by their homeowners policy, despite what the insurance company may say.

One of the most common tactics used by adjusters is to suggest the mold was due to some other cause unrelated to the initial damage event. We can help investigate and show the cause of the mold was covered.

Our firm is adept at handling a wide range of property damage claims, working to secure a fair settlement for our clients. Whatever type of disaster has befallen your home, you can trust us to aggressively pursue the fair and full claim payment you deserve.

Tips for Maximizing Your Property Damage Claim's Value

If necessary, consider hiring a public adjuster for an independent assessment of the damage. Should you encounter resistance from your insurer, consulting with a property damage lawyer can be beneficial. Jacksonville property damage lawyers are skilled in negotiating with insurance companies and may be able to help you recover funds well beyond what was initially offered.

Understanding Perils and Exclusions

Grasping the specifics of your insurance policy is crucial when filing a claim. Policies list named perils—events like fires, storms and theft that are covered—and exclusions, which are conditions that are not covered.

In Florida, it’s particularly important to understand how your policy addresses hurricane and flood damage, as standard policies often exclude them.

It’s typically a good idea to review both your primary home insurance policy as well as your flood insurance policy prior to hurricane season each year. Being aware of these details can be the difference between a successful claim and an unexpected denial.
