When a hurricane or major windstorm hits, the resulting damage can be enormous in terms of lives and property damage. Business grinds to a halt and people are left without water, power or a place to live. Recovery from these storms can be agonizingly slow, particularly when insurance companies fail to live up to their responsibilities to policyholders.

The attorneys at The Law Office of Mahmud Yennes, PLLC know far too well how costly the damages from a hurricane or windstorm can be. When a massive storm hits, we are committed to helping businesses and individuals obtain the full benefits they are owed under their insurance policies. Our firm represents clients in storm damage cases and other high stakes insurance coverage disputes throughout Florida and across the United States.

Our legal team has extensive experience representing businesses and homeowners in complex, high-value insurance coverage disputes involving:

• Denied Claims
• Unreasonably Delayed Payment of Claims
• Underpayment of Claims
• Insurer Bad Faith

Knowledge and experience tend to be major factors in hurricane/windstorm insurance coverage disputes. When a hurricane or major windstorm occurs, insurance companies will often deny coverage claiming that the damage was the result of flooding, rather than the hurricane or windstorm. Our legal team has a full understanding of the issues involved in these types of coverage disputes and we know how to gather the evidence necessary to prove that a policyholder’s losses should be covered under the applicable insurance policy. We also know the lengths that the insurance industry will go to in order to avoid paying these costly claims and will aggressively litigate hurricane/windstorm coverage disputes when it is in the best interest of our clients to do so.

Valuation of property is also a significant issue in many hurricane claims. For instance, the insurance company’s adjuster may not be able to distinguish a rare antique from thrift store junk. Our lawyers are well versed in property and asset valuation and we use objective tools and experts to document the value of our clients’ losses and advocate for full compensation.
