Types of Property Damage Cases We Handle
Our property damage attorneys serving North Carolina can help you handle the aftermath of a wide range of disasters, storms, and accidents. We are ready to help you pursue compensation from your insurance provider, whether you are filing a claim related to a residential or commercial property.
Storm Damage
Powerful storms can wreak havoc on your property. Lightning strikes can destroy structures and cause fires, heavy rains can cause flooding, large hail pellets can break windows, and strong winds can knock down trees or branches into your home or business.
Tornado and Hurricane Damage
While tornadoes do not occur as frequently in North Carolina as they do in the Midwest, they still occur regularly throughout the state every year.
Meanwhile, hurricanes have been responsible for some of the most significant property damage in the US. Situated on the coast of the Atlantic, North Carolina is in danger of being hit by one of these devastating natural disasters every hurricane season.
The extremely high winds that accompany these events can rip a business or home apart, and the heavy rains that come with a hurricane can put your property underwater.
Fire Damage
Fire is a powerful force that can begin as a small spark and quickly consume an entire region. Whether the result of a natural disaster, an accident, or arson, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses if your home or business goes up in flames.
Water Damage
Water damage can result from storms, newly leaking HVAC systems, or damaged pipes. The damages caused by water can be widespread and expensive to restore. In addition to direct damage to your business or home at the time of the flooding, water damage can also lead to the growth of mold, which can leave the building uninhabitable.

Standing Up to Bad Faith Insurance Providers
Insurance companies tend to fight hard to avoid having to pay out the money claimants are owed, especially in natural disaster cases where many people have been affected and the insurer is on the hook for dozens or hundreds of claims. While most insurers will go to great lengths to deny or devalue your claim, they are careful to do so while still obeying the law.
However, some insurance companies step outside the law in their attempts to avoid paying out valid claims. These bad-faith insurance practices can leave policyholders feeling helpless as they face needed repairs they can’t afford. Fortunately, an experienced North Carolina property damage attorney can help stand up to these insurers and hold them accountable for violations.
We can investigate your insurer to determine if they unlawfully denied your claim and take steps to secure the compensation you deserve while holding the insurer accountable for their illegal actions.
