Claims by Condominium Owners and Associations
Over the past few years, Florida has seen its share of hurricanes. During the 2004 hurricane season alone, Florida was hit by four hurricanes in just a matter of a few weeks. Hurricanes' Charley, Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne caused nearly two million homes, apartment buildings, condominiums and commercial buildings were affected. Many sustained serious damage and others were completely destroyed. As with commercial insurance policies, condominium insurance policies are often quite complex. If you had homeowners, condominium or renters insurance prior to a hurricane and you sustained a loss, you are entitled to be paid for all covered losses. The law firm of Marshall Thomas Burnett can help you maximize your recovery by addressing the numerous excuses and exclusions your insurance company may assert to delay or deny your legitimate claim. |
