The 2017 hurricane season was flooded with disaster and will go down in history as one of the worst, especially for Florida.
According to Florida Today, the acting director of the Miami National Hurricane Center said at the National Hurricane Conference in Orlando on Wednesday, March 28, that history was made with record-breaking, remarkable statistics and strange happenings from last year’s hurricane season.
The data analysis concluded that it was the most active season in 167 years in terms of accumulated cyclone energy, and that U.S. damages surpassed the 2005 $211 billion record at $265 billion.
In Florida, where people are frequently visiting or moving to from all around the world and aren’t necessarily prepared or knowledgeable about hurricanes, Irma alone unexpectedly hit almost every region of the state, single handedly having a devastating impact.
Consequently, a high volume of victims dealt with severe water damage or other hurricane induced property damage for the first time, inconveniently facing insurance company disputes.
If you have experienced an insurance loss from Hurricane Irma, other major weather event, or plumbing, water damage or roof, mold, fire, theft and vandalism, leak damage to your home or business, don’t be surprised if the insurance company’s first reaction is to claim that your damage is due to some pre-existing condition or assert that your claim is not covered under the terms of your policy or even cancel your policy based on recently-discovered “errors” in your application.
