Pipe Burst Insurance Claims
Water damage is a term that no homeowner wants to hear. It is one of the worst things that can happen to a property because the damage is innumerable and may not be easily corrected. The repair costs add up, and the complications surrounding insurance claims can seem like a different language altogether. When a pipe bursts in your home, you should be covered by your insurance policy, but most companies try to deny you the settlement you deserve or try to offer you a lower payment. If that happens, you need to take actions to protect your rights immediately. Contact the attorneys at Abir Cohen Treyzon Salo, LLP to find out more about your legal options and what you can do to get the compensation you deserve.
