Has your claim for residential sinkhole damage been denied?
Florida has the highest rate of sinkholes in the country, and insurance to cover any damage that might be caused by this kind of phenomenon is guaranteed for residents of the Sunshine State. Fortunately, sinkholes are not an everyday occurrence, and we usually only hear of those that swallow sections of highway or gobble up cars. However, some of these depressions develop gradually, causing damage to part of your home or property. If this happens, your next step is to file a claim with your insurance company, but this is not necessarily a simple matter with satisfactory results.
Did you fill out your insurance application correctly?
With page after page of insurance lingo that you do not fully comprehend, it is easy to understand why you may have rushed through your Florida homeowners' insurance application. Or perhaps you had an agent fill it out for you and tell you where to sign. Either way, you now have to face the consequence of your insurance provider denying your property damage claim due to application errors. It may be more difficult, but it is not impossible to make the insurance company pay. All you need is the right resource.
