Storm damage lawsuits often arise when insurance companies deny or underpay claims for property damage caused by hurricanes, tornadoes, or severe thunderstorms. These lawsuits allege that insurers acted in bad faith or breached contract by failing to provide adequate compensation for repairs.
Common issues include property damage from wind, flooding, or falling trees, as well as disputes over whether damage is covered under standard homeowners’ policies or requires separate flood insurance.
Individuals or businesses may be eligible to file a storm damage lawsuit if their insurance claim for property damage from a storm was denied, delayed, or underpaid. Eligibility typically requires proof of damage (e.g., photos, repair estimates) and evidence that the insurance company failed to honor the policy terms. This may include claims for wind damage, water damage from wind-driven rain, or structural damage from fallen trees.
Lawsuits may also be filed against negligent parties, such as property owners who failed to maintain trees that caused damage during a storm. Claims must be filed within the statute of limitations, which is typically three years for property damage in many states, such as North Carolina. Consulting an attorney can help determine if bad faith insurance practices or negligence applies to your case.
