Legal Help for Denied, Delayed, and Underpaid Property Insurance Claims

Trusted Tampa Insurance Claim Attorneys Who Fight for Policyholders

When your home suffers damage from a hurricane, fire, water leak, sinkhole, or storm, you expect your insurance company to uphold their end of the deal. Unfortunately, too many Tampa homeowners face denied, delayed, or underpaid home insurance claims, leaving them financially vulnerable during their time of need.

At Williams Law, P.A., we stand up for homeowners across Tampa and the surrounding areas who’ve been mistreated by their insurance companies. Our Tampa home insurance claim lawyers aggressively pursue the full compensation you’re owed—even when the insurer says “no.”

Why You Need a Tampa Property Insurance Claim Attorney

Most homeowners assume their insurance company will handle the claim fairly. But insurers are profit-driven corporations that often prioritize their bottom line over your loss. Our expert Tampa home insurance lawyer can help you:

  • Interpret confusing policy language

  • Prove the full extent of your property damage

  • Demand fair treatment and timely payment

  • File lawsuits against insurers acting in bad faith

  • Reopen or supplement denied or underpaid claims

Policyholders represented by legal counsel recover significantly more—often 3 to 5 times what they would receive on their own.

Why Property Insurance Claims Get Denied or Underpaid

Insurance carriers use a variety of tactics to delay, deny, or underpay claims, including:

  • Alleging “wear and tear” instead of sudden damage
  • Citing pre-existing conditions
  • Arguing maintenance neglect
  • Misinterpreting policy exclusions
  • Using biased engineers or adjusters
  • Blaming “concurrent causes” to void coverage
  • Minimizing the scope of repairs with low estimates

Even valid claims can be rejected if the insurer claims you didn’t act fast enough or failed to mitigate further damage.

Bad Faith Insurance Practices in Florida

Under Florida law (Fla. Stat. § 624.155), insurance companies must handle your claim in good faith. If they delay, underpay, or deny your valid claim without reason, they may be acting in bad faith.

Common Examples of Bad Faith Include:

  • Delaying investigations
  • Refusing to communicate
  • Lowballing damages
  • Misrepresenting coverage
  • Denying without a proper investigation

How We Handle Insurance Disputes in Tampa

Step 1: Comprehensive Claim Review

We analyze your policy and determine coverage limits, exclusions, and endorsements. Many policies include hidden clauses such as ensuing loss, which may override exclusions.

Step 2: Independent Damage Evaluation

We collaborate with engineers, roofers, contractors, and adjusters who work for you, not your insurance company, to accurately assess the extent of damage.

Step 3: Aggressive Legal Action

If your insurer refuses to pay fairly, then we take the matter to court. Our litigation team builds a solid case, backed by experts and legal precedent, to demand what you’re rightfully owed.
