Windstorm
It is not uncommon for insurance companies to either delay or outright refuse payment to their clients after catastrophic damage incurred by windstorms.
If you find yourself in this unfortunate predicament anywhere in the greater Tampa or St. Petersburg area, it is critical to immediately retain an experienced
and qualified attorney who can fight for the compensation you are rightly owed.
Ms. Streater is a zealous advocate on behalf of policyholders and is regarded as one of the most aggressive lawyers in the State of Florida when in comes to battling the big insurance companies.
Ms. Streater will happily handle every facet of your case, beginning with an assessment of what is covered under the terms of your policy, as well as what
monies you may be entitled to for cost-of-living expenses until the repairs to your home are complete.
Sinkholes
While the prevelance of sinkholes is not unique to Florida, local residents have been given an increased reminder recently that we do
indeed have more sinkholes than any other state.
Repairing damage caused by a sinkhole that has developed under your home or driveway can be extraordnarily expensive
and time-consuming.
Adding coverage for sinkholes to an insurance policy is a costly proposition, and in similar fashion to many other
areas of coverage, the insurance companies will always do all they can to minimize their payouts to their policyholders.
We therefore encourage you to call The Law Office of Lisa M. Streater in the unfortunate event you have been victimized by a sinkhole,
Ms. Streater will do everything in her power to ensure you receive a fair and just payout.
Fire
Fires are something that every homeowner fears most, as every possession accumulated over a lifetime can be destroyed within minutes or even seconds.
While family keepsakes can never be recovered, our office is vastly experienced and
supremely capable of holding your insurance company accountable for every inclusion in your policy, including the cost of temporary housing.
Insurance companies are known to undervalue claims, and in some instances, deny or delay payment.
We encourage you to call our office to ensure a strong advocate is on your side.
Theft
Burglars can strike at any time, making off with either your hard-earned cash or your treasured possessions.
When they do, it is vitally important to retain a qualified attorney to hold your insurance company accountable
for paying out the full benefits to which you are entitled under the terms of your policy. Ms. Streater understands
how devastating it can be to fall victim to theft. She possesses the dedication, experience, knowledge, and savvy to ensure you
are reimbursed fully for your loss.
Mold
The presence of toxic mold in your residence or office not only poses a serious threat to the property's foundation, but also to the health of you and
all of your family members and employees.
At our law office, we champion the cause of policyholders who have uncovered mold on their property,
successfully ensuring they are appropriately compensated for: the cost of inspections; the cost of all necessary repairs;
the cost of replacing ruined office equipment and personal possessions; and the cost of temporary accommodations while repairs are carried out.
Water Intrusion
Water damage to a property can result from any number of unforeseen disasters, such as windstorms, tornados, or hurricanes, as well as from poor
craftsmanship on the part of builders, contractors, or subcontractors. If you have been the victim of water intrusion at your home, Ms. Streater
can provide the legal savvy and experience needed to ensure you are properly reimbursed by your insurance company
or other responsible party or parties such as a contractor.
If your home or commercial space has been damaged because of any number of natural disasters such as a tidal surge or flood, or because of
poor construction such as burst water pipes or broken water heaters, we encourage you to call our office today.
Business Interruption
Just about every business owner understands the importance of coverage in the event of a natural disaster such as a flood or a fire.
But an increasingly popular coverage is "business interruption," which will ensure you do not lose revenue should your business be forced
to shut down temporarily while repairs or reconstruction projects are carried out.
Ms. Streater is a zealous advocate for her clients who are not being properly reimbursed for business interruption.
She understands that employees and utility bills must still be paid even in the event your company has been temporarily shut down,
and she will champion your rights to a full and speedy payout from your insurer.
