Insurance Claim Denial

No matter what company your homeowner’s policy is with, insurance claim denial goes the same way.

The policyholder files a claim for damage to their home or business, prompting the insurance company to assess the damage. Once the adjuster inspects the house, the insurance company finds a way to deny the claim based on language in a policy.

There are cases where the insurance company pays the claim in full, but for the most part, these claims do not get paid out. Claim denial is how insurance companies stay in business, and it’s how so many of these companies exist.

Insurance companies also love to underpay claims. We know how it feels when you get that check in the mail after a loss and you just want to cry. Even though it is going to cost you a lot to fix your house, suddenly your insurance company wants to pay you peanuts.

Depending on what state you live in, you could have several insurance options available to you. There are large, general insurance companies and smaller, state companies who cover a variety of things. If you own a home or business, you probably pay a monthly premium or annual premium to an insurance company.
