What To Do When Homeowner's Insurance Denies Claim

Unless your policy states outright that the damage your home has suffered is not covered, you should be able to file an appeal and resubmit your claim. An attorney can assist you with this process to ensure your claim is done correctly and the insurance company covers your losses adequately.

Common Reasons Why Claims Are Denied

Don’t panic! There are plenty of reasons your claim may have been denied, both reasonable and not. For example, you may have forgotten to submit a form or made a mistake on your paperwork, which is likely an easy fix. Or, more frustratingly, it could be that your insurance policy doesn’t actually cover the damage your property has suffered. Finally, your insurance company may be engaging in “bad faith,” meaning they denied your claim despite its validity in order to try to save themselves money.

However, what is covered will vary from plan to plan as mentioned. The best way to ensure you are set up to get the coverage you desire is to review your policy, including the fine print.

Insurance policies are often written to be purposefully difficult to decipher so that the insurer can take advantage of their policyholders. We are here for you in the event your insurance company uses bad faith tactics against you to deny or delay your valid homeowners insurance claim.
