We represent many homeowners and commercial building owners who have suffered property damage that results in an insurance claim being filed.  It might be a dishwasher leak that damaged a hardwood floor, or a house fire, or water damage from a variety of sources.  We are able to resolve most of these claims for our clients without ever filing a lawsuit.  But remember that your property insurance adjuster is not paid to ensure that every aspect of your loss is fully investigated, or to ensure that you get the absolute best repairs allowed under your policy.  Adjusters are paid to resolve claims as quickly and cheaply as possible.  For this reason, you may benefit from retaining legal counsel early on to help you recover all of the remedies available – and for which you’ve been paying those insurance premiums.
