If you’re a Tampa area homeowner who has dutifully paid your homeowners insurance over the many years you’ve owned your home, then you should be able to rest easy knowing that if hurricane-force winds ravage your home that your insurance company will foot the bill for repairs. That, unfortunately, isn’t always how things turn out.

There are some types of damage that are explicitly excluded from your insurance policy, such as certain types of flood damage. But as we know in Tampa, storm surge isn’t the only damaging aspect of a hurricane, and there are many potential home damages that can occur during a hurricane that should absolutely be covered by your policy.

When your insurance company tries to deny a legitimate claim for hurricane damages that should be covered, you deserve an advocate who is going to aggressively pursue the settlement your need to repair. The hurricane damage and property damage attorneys at Kanner & Pintaluga’s Tampa office are ready to be that advocate.

We will conduct a detailed investigation of your situation, the damage, your insurance policy and the insurance company’s action in your case. We’ll even work with third-party independent claims adjusters to make sure we have the evidence we need to go back to the insurance company and effectively argue that the damage to your home should be covered under your policy.
