Do Not Accept Your Insurance Carrier's Underpayment or Wrongful Denial of Your Residential Foundation Damage Claim
Many insurance companies have changed their policies and coverage related to residential foundation and water damage claims. Although most insurance companies have changed coverage for such damage, many insurance companies still offer or provide limited coverage for foundation damage caused by plumbing leaks. Our experience in this field has shown that most residential foundation claims are denied, regardless of their validity. Do the following sound familiar?
- Foundation movement and damage to your home.
- Plumbing leaks discovered under or near the foundation.
- Claim reported to insurance company.
- Insurance company engineer inspects home.
- Claim denied based on insurance company engineering report.
If the above sounds familiar, then your claim may have been wrongfully denied or underpaid. Please contact us as soon as possible for a free consultation to discuss your important legal rights.
Many cases we handle involve "lowball" payments by the insurance company
We have achieved positive results for numerous clients whose foundation claims were underpaid. If the claim is not flat out denied, then insurance companies will frequently underpay claims. Contact us to review your prospective insurance foundation claim to determine if the insurance company's decision should be challenged.
In many cases, we have assisted clients whose homes had sustained significant damage due to plumbing leaks. In one case, the foundation of our clients' home shifted several inches and extensive interior damage appeared in a relatively short period of time. Numerous leaks were discovered under the foundation. The insurance company sent an engineer to inspect the home and issue a report. The engineer concluded the leaks did not cause any movement or foundation damage and the claim was denied. We successfully uncovered evidence that the insurance company engineer had been hired hundreds of times before reaching similar conclusions in most of his prior investigations. We demonstrated that the insurance company's reliance upon the report was unreasonable. Our clients were able to ultimately repair their home once the dispute was resolved.
