WHAT WE DO

FLORIDA HOMEOWNER INSURANCE DISPUTES

Our experienced homeowners Insurance claim lawyers at Legal Grit PLLC represent homeowners throughout Florida in first-party insurance disputes.

Policyholders, like yourself, pay thousands of dollars each year in premiums to insurance companies to protect their homes and assets from sudden and disastrous events, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, pipe breaks, fire, theft, vandalism, lightning, and more. When an insurance company contractually agrees to cover losses under the insurance policy you paid for and then either drastically underpays, denies, or delays payment for your covered damages, a breach of that agreement occurs.

When an insurance company refuses to uphold its end of the bargain you paid for by trying to use a loophole or exclusion in your insurance policy to limit your coverage, we will fight back to obtain the compensation owed to you. That’s where we come in as your homeowners insurance lawyer.

We have experience in fighting your home insurance company and holding their feet to the fire to prevent them from evading its obligation to you as a policyholder to simply maximize their bottom line.
