Commercial Roof Claim Disputes
Texas Commercial Property Damage Attorneys
Business owners who own their own commercial property know the story too well. After suffering roof damage in a windstorm, hailstorm, hurricane, or tornado, the owner is denied an insurance claim because of the age of the roof. The adjuster often points to minor provisions, stating that the building owner is responsible for general repair, replacement, or maintenance of the roof. It is not unusual for an insurance company to deny a roof damage claim based on the age of the roof, even though nothing is specifically noted in the policy provisions.
Doyle Raizner LLP is your bad faith insurance litigation law firm serving South Texas. We know the tactics insurance companies often use to deny claims and we counter with successful strategies, including hiring professional roofing engineers to fully inspect the nature of the damage to find clear, physical evidence of property damage covered under terms of the policy.
