Tornado Damage? Don’t Let The Insurance Company Deny Your Claim.

Last updated on August 29, 2024

Living through a tornado is a terrifying experience. If you and your family made it to the lowest level of the building and survived the tornado, you consider yourself lucky. While survival is the most important thing, there is a long, complex process of rebuilding ahead. Our Galveston attorneys are here to represent homeowners and business owners in Texas and across the country after a tornado.

At The Hodge Law Firm, PLLC, we understand what you are feeling. We have represented hundreds of people who are fighting the insurance company for the compensation they need. With nine lawyers and additional staff, we have the resources to handle any kind of tornado damage, including total losses. Find out how we can help you today.

What Type Of Losses Did You Suffer In The Storm?

A tornado can cause many types of damage to a structure such as:

  • Roof damage: A roof may be damaged or completely blown off.
  • Window damage: Objects thrown by the tornado can break windows.
  • Downed trees that hit the structure: When a large tree is felled by a tornado, it can land on the roof, causing damage or puncturing the roof.
  • Damage to vehicles on the property: Vehicles that were outside may be flipped over or totaled if a tree or building fall on them.
  • Building collapse: This level of destruction will make the property uninhabitable and will ruin some, if not all, of the contents inside.
  • Total loss of the home or business and everything on the property: This is the most severe outcome of a tornado. Structures will have to be rebuilt and all possessions and furnishings will have to be replaced.

At The Hodge Law Firm, PLLC, we have years of experience working for insurance companies. This allows us to anticipate what your insurance company will do to try to avoid paying out the compensation you need. We will try negotiating with your insurer, but will also be prepared to take the case to trial if negotiation does not produce results.

Steps To Take After A Tornado

If anyone is hurt, call 911 immediately. It is best that you do not enter damaged or destroyed buildings at this time. If it is safe to take photos of the damage, you should document everything you can. Call your insurance company to get the claim started.

If your insurance company refuses to offer the money you need to repair and rebuild, do not accept their settlement. Instead, call us so we can handle the insurance issues for you.
