Businesses
Similar to insurance claims for homeowners, business insurance claims often seek to recover damages resulting from factors such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fire, mold, plumbing pipe bursts, lightening surges, and others such as theft and loss of warehoused inventory. When you encounter unreasonable delay, a failure by the insurance company to investigate your claim, threats if you refuse to settle, or an unreasonable denial of your business insurance claim, you will not usually recover the compensation your business deserves. Also, liability insurance is designed to protect your business against lawsuits. Insurance company refusal to defend you in a liability suit against your company may ultimately force you to seek representation against the insurance company to recover damages.

Because insurance policies are noted for their complexity, and the average policy holder has difficulty understanding the coverage provided, it is wise to have an attorney review the policy to protect your rights. Insurance companies employ adjusters and retain their own attorneys to interpret insurance policies in their favor. They reduce or deny benefits, whenever possible.
At Steven Dunn, P.A., our lawyers will manage or negotiate your initial claim, appeal an improper denial of claim on your behalf, or litigate against the insurance company if necessary to help you obtain your financial security. When represented by a seasoned insurance trial lawyer with extensive experience in representing disability, long-term healthcare, uninsured motorist, homeowners, business, and other types of insurance claims, your likelihood of obtaining the benefits you deserve are much greater.
In addition, if your insurance claim has been unjustly denied, our firm may be able to obtain compensation not only for policy benefits, but also for other losses incurred, such as emotional distress and general damages, lawyers' fees, and other out-of-pocket expenses. In extreme cases, the court may even award punitive damages.
