When Should I Contact an Attorney About an Insurance Claim?
Generally, the more money that’s at stake, the harder it will be to collect. Your insurance company probably won’t give you a hard time over a claim for a few hundred dollars. But if the damage is serious, and they are looking at paying big bucks, they’ll start foot-dragging and pointing out the fine print.
Experts say it’s best to talk with a claims lawyer right away. That way, the insurance company takes your claim seriously right from the start. Remember, for the homeowner filing a property damage claim is likely (hopefully) a once-in-a-lifetime event. But denying claims is what insurance company adjusters do for a living – and they’re good at it.
If you call your insurer without first talking to a property damage claims lawyer, you may say things that aren’t helpful to your claim. But when the adjuster gets a call from your lawyer, they know they can’t play around with your claim.
Your claim is less likely to be denied in the first place if you have an attorney. But once a claim is denied, you have a bigger fight on your hands. So it’s better to hire an insurance claims lawyer before the insurance company has a chance to deny your claim.
