Hurricane Katrina Damage Claims must be filed by August 28, 2006.

While the wrath of Hurricane Katrina devastated both homes and businesses all over the Gulf coast, renters faced particular issues as everything that they owned was destroyed by the storm and the accompanying flood waters.

Tragically, only renters that had previously purchased renter's insurance were able to recover compensation for their damages, and many of these claims were even rejected, due to a technicality asserted by some insurance companies that their personal possessions were covered from loss from perils such as windstorm, fire, theft and vandalism, but not flooding. Because the hurricane in fact caused this flooding, renters and homeowners alike were left confused and destitute.

Stories emerged that in some cases, unscrupulous ajusters were coercing policyholders into signing waivers stating that their belongings were damaged because of flood, thus unknowingly exempting themselves from restitution. If your insurance company is intentionally misleading you about your coverage, you are not alone. Begin your case and contact an insurance claim attorney today.
