Do You Know What Your Rights Are After an Earthquake? Talk to an Earthquake Damage Attorney for Help
The California sunshine does not come without its drawbacks—unfortunately, earthquakes have become synonymous with California living. Most of them, although minor, can cause significant damage. Even in a year that is relatively low in earthquakes, millions of dollars in property damage repairs are necessary. And, in years with significant earthquakes, billions of dollars in property damage repairs are necessary.
Home and business owners often mistakenly believe that their insurance policy includes earthquake coverage. Unfortunately, damage caused by earthquakes is usually excluded unless earthquake coverage has been purchased. If you are unsure about your coverage and are having trouble getting the compensation you are owed, contact an Earthquake Damage Attorney at Bellum Law Group at (888) 223 5586 now!
Even a Small Mistake in Your Claim Can Lead to a Denial
Filing an earthquake damage claim is not as simple as it may seem. Even the smallest mistake can be used to try and deny or reduce your earthquake damage claim. Insurance companies are all too quick to challenge and outright deny claims on minor technicalities despite the existence of coverage.
You Are Entitled to Seek Damages After an Earthquake
Even though we have a better understanding of earthquakes today than at any time in human history, the risks earthquakes pose are only getting more serious. In fact, the U.S. Geological Survey has reported a significant chance of an 8.0 magnitude earthquake in California in the next three decades.
Following an earthquake, some of your damages may include:
- Medical expenses for injuries caused by the earthquake
- Destruction of inventory or interruption of regular business hours
- Significant home/business repairs
- Damaged possessions
- Costs of temporary relocation (i.e., hotels, meals)
An Earthquake Damage Attorney at Bellum Law Group will evaluate your circumstances and develop a comprehensive plan to get you the maximum compensation possible.
