Tampa Cast Iron Water Damage Insurance Claim
Settlement Secured for Tampa Homeowner in Cast Iron Pipe Water Damage Claim
Williams Law Association, P.A. recently secured a significant victory for a homeowner in Tampa, Florida, whose property suffered extensive water damage due to deteriorating cast-iron pipes. The homeowner’s insurance company initially denied the claim, citing that the damage was caused by “normal wear and tear,” which was excluded from the policy’s coverage.
Faced with this denial, the homeowner turned to Williams Law Association, P.A. for assistance. Our experienced legal team thoroughly reviewed the case, gathered expert assessments, and built a strong argument that the damage was not merely a result of wear and tear, but rather the failure of the cast-iron plumbing system.
After engaging in aggressive negotiations with the insurance company, we secured a $45,000 settlement for the homeowner, which covered the cost of repairs and prevented further out-of-pocket expenses. This settlement allowed the homeowner to restore their property and resolve the ongoing issues with the failing plumbing system.
