  3. You should take photos and/or videos of the damage to your property, interior and exterior, along with any personal items after the hurricane, and make notes – particularly if there is structural damage. Do not discard damaged items until an adjuster has inspected them.
  4. If you took photos prior to the storm, compare those to photos taken after the storm.
  5. Save all receipts for all immediate repairs made, incurred hotel or other housing, along with food or other expenses incurred due to evacuating your area.
  6. Keep a journal of every conversation with insurance representatives and others involved in your hurricane damage claim. Record the day and time of the conversation, and the name of the person you spoke with, and make note of any monetary amounts mentioned. You should also be given a business card from any person who comes out as a representative of your insurance company.

Frequently Asked Questions For Hurricane Ian Insurance Claims

Q: WILL MY INSURANCE RAISE MY PREMIUMS IF I FILE A LAWSUIT?

Most premiums are raised annually, with or without a claim or lawsuit being filed. You pay for insurance to protect you, and our lawyers are here to help enforce the protection you deserve.

Factors that generally cause an individual to have a significant change in premium different from the public is the number of claims made in a certain period of time (normally 3 years) and if those claims were for nonstandard type claims.  A hurricane, tornado, or other storm generally affects a large area and is due to Mother Nature; these a considered standard claims.
