Key Questions About Wind Damage Insurance Disputes

Financial strain after windstorm damage can be overwhelming, especially if coverage is challenged. This section explains how claims work and how legal help can protect you.

Can I file a claim for roof shingles blown off, or is that considered normal wear and tear?

Yes, you can file a claim. When shingles are torn off by high winds, it’s considered storm damage. Insurers often argue the issue is normal wear and tear, but the difference lies in the cause. Our attorneys can bring in roof inspectors or engineers to show that the damage was caused by the storm. Weather records from the day of the event can also back up your claim. Together, this evidence helps challenge attempts by insurers to deny or minimize coverage.

What steps should I take right after discovering roof or siding damage caused by strong winds?

Once it’s safe, start by documenting everything. Take photos and videos of missing shingles, broken siding, or water intrusion. If you need to make temporary repairs, such as placing a tarp or boarding up windows, keep receipts for the work. Contact your insurance company quickly and request a copy of your full policy so you understand the coverage limits. The earlier you gather proof and notify your insurer, the stronger your position will be if disputes arise later.

How do attorneys prove wind damage when insurers blame poor maintenance?

Our attorneys often partner with roofing professionals and engineers who know the difference between storm impact and gradual wear. High winds leave specific evidence, such as lifted shingles or punctures caused by debris, that looks very different from long-term deterioration. Lawyers also use weather data to prove the storm’s intensity. By combining expert testimony with storm records, they can show the loss was directly tied to wind damage rather than neglect.

Are bad faith insurance practices common with wind damage claims?

Truthfully, they can occur more often than many property owners expect. Some insurers delay communication, undervalue the cost of repairs, or even issue blanket denials without investigating properly. These tactics may qualify as bad faith. When that happens, our law firm can bring a separate lawsuit against the insurer. A bad faith claim not only seeks coverage for the original damage but may also allow additional compensation for the way the insurer handled your case.

What damages may be recovered through a lawsuit handled by a windstorm loss lawyer?

Compensation can extend well beyond just repairing the roof. It may include full structural restoration, replacement of damaged belongings, temporary housing costs if the home is unlivable, and more. For businesses, damages may also cover ruined equipment and lost income from forced closures. The goal of a lawsuit is to ensure property owners are made whole, not left with partial repairs that don’t reflect the true extent of their loss.

Do attorneys also represent clients in cases where fences, garages, or outbuildings are damaged by winds?

Absolutely! Damage to secondary structures like fences, barns, or garages can be costly and disruptive. These losses are often overlooked by insurers, but they are typically covered under many property policies. Our team can review your policy language to confirm whether these structures should be included and take action if the insurer tries to exclude them. This ensures the entire property, not just the main building, is accounted for in the claim.

Why is it important to hire a lawyer with experience in storm-related wind damage disputes?

Experience matters because wind claims often involve complex policy language and insurer tactics designed to limit payouts. A lawyer who regularly handles windstorm disputes understands these strategies and knows how to build a claim supported by evidence. That experience can speed up the process, improve your chance of success, and give you confidence that the full cost of your losses is accounted for.
