This percentage of tornado frequency is over 50% more than any other state in the United States. Most homeowners, church owners and business owners have some sort of insurance policy to protect against tornado damage in Texas. If your insurance company is not obeying the terms of your policy, you may be able to fight against them. Team up with a Texas bad faith insurance attorney from our firm for help in your case. Tornadoes can result in severe damage due to objects being thrown through the air and the significant wind velocity that occurs. Some of the common damages that tornados cause include:
- Broken windows
- Parts of the roof ripped off
- Houses torn down
- Automobiles thrown through the air
- Broken trees
- Removal of walls
Depending on the intensity of the tornado, you may be facing large bills for the repairs needed to your property. This is when your insurance company is supposed to come in and help you move past this event. Not only are insurance companies supposed to assist you with the repair bills, but also for your living expenses until you are able to move back home. All too often, insurance companies fight against paying for the full coverage or any coverage at all. Do not accept a settlement less than you are owed through your policy. If your insurance company is acting in bad faith in your tornado damage claim, contact a Texas insurance bad faith lawyer from Brasher Law Firm, PLLC. We may be able to help you fight against your insurance company and obtain the compensation that you need after suffering from tornado damage.
