Hurricane Milton Insurance Claim Process

Look, insurance claims aren’t exactly thrilling, but here’s the reality: waiting too long can turn bad situations worse. Water damage gets uglier by the day. Mold doesn’t care about insurance paperwork. Neither do weakening structures or deteriorating foundations. We’ve seen too many families lose out on thousands of dollars simply because they waited too long to start their claim.
The good news? Starting early puts you ahead of the game. We’ve seen it time and again – quick action usually means quicker results. Our team at Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys can jump in immediately, often visiting your property within 24 hours to document crucial evidence before it disappears. Just call 205-323-1000 – the sooner we start, the stronger your claim becomes.
What Makes Milton Different

This wasn’t your typical hurricane. The wind patterns did things we haven’t seen before, creating unique challenges for homeowners and insurance companies alike. That small crack in your wall? It might be telling a bigger story about what’s happening inside. Our experience handling hurricane claims has taught us that Milton’s unusual wind patterns created damage patterns that many insurance adjusters aren’t trained to recognize.
Plus, many homeowners are just now discovering the gap between regular hurricane coverage and flood insurance. It’s a tough lesson to learn after the fact. But here’s where knowledge becomes power: understanding exactly what type of damage you’re dealing with can make or break your claim. Our storm damage calculator at calculator.shunnarah.com/storm can help you start identifying these crucial distinctions.
Getting Your Claim Right

Experience tells us that solid documentation makes all the difference. The more evidence you have, the stronger your position. Think of it as building your case – every photo, every repair estimate, every conversation with your insurance company adds up. This is where having Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys in your corner really matters.
Our team knows exactly what insurance companies look for – and what they try to avoid paying for. We’ve handled thousands of hurricane claims, and we’ve developed a systematic approach to documenting and presenting your case. From the moment you call us at 205-323-1000, we’ll start building your claim the right way.
Remember: insurance companies have teams of adjusters and lawyers working to minimize their payouts. Having your own team levels the playing field. While you focus on getting your family’s life back to normal, we focus on maximizing your claim’s value. Our storm damage calculator gives you a starting point, but our experienced attorneys can often identify additional damages and coverage you might not know about.

Your Milton Questions Answered
Where should I start?
First things first – make sure it’s safe to assess your property. Then document everything. Yes, everything. That broken window, those wet carpets, even that slightly warped door frame. After that, use our case calculator or give us a call to get you the help you need in making sure your claim is taken seriously.
Do I have to rush my claim?
Technically, Florida gives you two years. But realistically? Sooner is better. Insurance companies tend to look sideways at delays, and evidence gets harder to gather as time passes.
What’s usually covered?
Wind damage typically falls under your hurricane policy. Water that came through a wind-damaged roof? Usually covered. But groundwater flooding needs separate flood insurance – a detail that’s caught many by surprise. Give us a call and we’ll be able to give you advice specific to your situation.
What proof do I need?
Think like a detective. Photos and videos are gold. Keep every receipt. List everything damaged. The more detailed your documentation, the smoother your claim typically goes.
What if they deny my claim?
Don’t panic. Denials happen, but they’re not the end. Sometimes it’s just about providing more information or clarifying details. We’ve turned plenty of “no” into “yes.” Call us today and let us help you.
Can insurance pay for temporary housing?
If you have Additional Living Expenses coverage, yes. This can help with hotels, rentals, and even extra food costs. Just save those receipts.
The appeal process – how does it work?
Insurance companies must explain their decisions in writing and tell you your rights. There’s a clear process to appeal, and you don’t have to navigate it alone – we’re just a phone call away.
How do these new insurance laws affect me?
Insurance regulations keep evolving, but that’s our job to monitor. We stay current so you don’t have to memorize legal changes.
How do I protect my interests?
Keep records of everything – calls, emails, expenses. Better yet, let us help carry that load. It’s literally what we’re here for.
