A Property Damage Claims Attorney Fighting for What You Deserve: Navigating Claims Against Insurance Companies

As a property damage claims attorney, I'm here to help policyholders navigate the complex and frustrating claims process. 2024 wrought an unprecedented array of challenges for Kentucky communities - chemical plant explosions in Louisville, “once in a lifetime” hurricanes, and the continuing trend of highly destructive tornadoes have left thousands of Kentuckians to grapple with significant property damage. In times like these, we expect our insurance companies to step up—after all, you’ve paid your premiums and trusted them to be there when disaster strikes. But far too often, they fall short, leaving policyholders frustrated, overwhelmed, and under-compensated.

At The Potash Law Firm, I’ve made it my mission to stand up to insurance companies that put profits before people. If you’re dealing with denied or underpaid claims, here’s what you need to know and how I can help.

The Reality of Property Damage Claims

Property damage claims—whether for residential homes or commercial properties—can be complex and emotionally draining. Insurance companies often use tactics designed to minimize payouts from the initial assessment to the negotiation process. Common strategies include:

• Delaying the claims process to wear you down.

• Denying claims outright, citing vague policy language or exclusions.

• Underestimating the value of your damages, offering settlements far below what you’re owed.

These tactics are incredibly frustrating when your home, livelihood, or business is at stake. Insurance companies have armies of adjusters and attorneys working to protect their bottom line—you deserve someone just as dedicated to your interests.

When your insurance company falls short of its responsibilities, it’s my job to step in and level the playing field. 

Here’s how I approach these cases:

1. Comprehensive Policy ReviewI’ll carefully review your insurance policy to understand your coverage and identify areas where the insurer may be acting in bad faith.

2. Detailed Damage AssessmentI'll work with trusted experts to ensure your damages are fully documented and accounted for, strengthening your claim with indisputable evidence.

Fire, Storm, and Explosion Claims: What to Watch For

In our community, recent disasters have highlighted specific challenges for property damage claims:

• Fire Damage: Fires often result in disputes over whether smoke or water damage from firefighting efforts is covered. Insurance companies may also undervalue rebuilding costs or exclude certain repairs.

• Storm Damage: High winds, flooding, and hail can cause structural damage that isn’t always visible immediately. Insurers may exploit this by lowballing claims or blaming pre-existing conditions.

• Explosion Damage: Chemical plant explosions cause widespread destruction, yet insurance companies may delay payouts or attempt to shift blame to third parties.

If you’re dealing with any of these issues, don’t face them alone. The earlier you seek legal help, the better your chances of securing the full compensation you deserve.
