Fallen Trees Attorney
Attorneys focusing on property damage cases can assess the situation and determine the legal aspects involved. They can review your insurance policies, evaluate the extent of the damage, and determine who may be liable for the fallen tree, such as your insurance, a neighbor, a utility company, or a municipality.
Gathering Evidence: Attorneys can help gather evidence to support your claim. This may include collecting photographs, videos, witness statements, and any other relevant documentation related to the incident. They can also consult with experts, such as arborists or structural engineers, to assess the cause and extent of the damage.
Insurance Claims: Dealing with insurance companies can be complex, and attorneys can assist in navigating the claims process. They can review your insurance policy, communicate with the insurance company on your behalf, and negotiate for a fair settlement. If the insurance company denies your claim or offers an insufficient amount, an attorney can help you appeal the decision or take legal action, if necessary.
Liability Determination: In cases where someone else may be responsible for the fallen tree, such as a neighbor who failed to maintain their trees or a municipality that neglected to remove hazardous trees, attorneys can help establish liability. They will investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident, gather evidence, and build a case to prove negligence or other legal grounds for liability.
Legal Representation: If your case requires legal action, an attorney can represent you in court. They can draft legal documents, file a lawsuit, and advocate for your rights and interests during the litigation process. Attorneys can present your case to the court, cross-examine witnesses, negotiate settlements, and seek compensation for the property damage you’ve suffered.
Maximizing Compensation: Attorneys are skilled in assessing the full extent of your damages. They can help you calculate the costs associated with repairing or replacing your property, including any structural damage, landscaping, personal belongings, and other related expenses. Attorneys aim to maximize your compensation by considering both economic and non-economic damages, such as emotional distress or inconvenience caused by the incident.
It’s important to consult with an attorney who focuses on property damage cases to ensure you receive the appropriate legal guidance and representation tailored to your specific situation.
Insurance Companies
Despite the promises of “protecting” you and your assets, your homeowner’s insurance does not always cover you sufficiently. The insurance company has multiple factors they consider when deciding whether or not to pay your claim and they do not always come to the same conclusion you believe they should. Nevertheless, we often find ourselves in a position that there are expensive repairs that the insurance either denies to cover or only offers partial coverage.
The initial settlement you are offered by an insurance company is almost always much less than you are entitled to. If you accept this settlement without first consulting with an First Party Insurance Attorney, you risk signing away your right to the amount you really deserve.
Never settle for less than you deserve. Our Severe Storm Attorneys can tell you what your claim is really worth.
