As homeowners, we invest in insurance policies for financial protection against unforeseen disasters. The fancy term is indemnification: policyholders pay premiums to insurers, who, in return, agree to compensate for losses or damages.
However, the reality of filing a claim for your property damage can be far from smooth. Insurance companies may employ tactics to delay, deny, or underpay legitimate claims, leaving homeowners and restoration contractors in a challenging position.
Common Insurance Tactics:
- Delay Tactics: Insurance companies may intentionally slow down the claims process, hoping policyholders will become frustrated and settle for less.
- Excessive Documentation Requests: Demanding unnecessary paperwork can create delays and confusion.
- Misinterpreting Policy Language: Insurers may selectively interpret policy language to minimize coverage.
- Low Initial Settlement Offers: Initial offers may significantly undervalue the actual cost of repairs.
- Ignoring or Dismissing Evidence: Crucial evidence from restoration professionals may be overlooked or dismissed.
- Shifting Blame to Excluded Causes: Insurers may try to attribute damage to excluded causes in the policy.
- Imposing Unnecessary Repair Requirements: Insurers may demand strict, unreasonable repair standards, leading to additional costs.
- Misleading Communication: Ambiguous language or misinformation can discourage claimants from pursuing a fair claim.
