What to do after a property damage event in California.


The first step is to document everything—photos, videos, and receipts. Then, contact your insurer and file a claim. But if your insurance company delays or offers too little, that’s where we step in. Our firm reviews your policy, determines what you’re entitled to, and holds insurers accountable under California law.

HOW WE WORK

Frequently Asked Questions About

Property Damage Claims.

Insurance claims can be frustrating and confusing. Here are answers to common questions about property damage disputes and legal recovery:


  • What types of property damage qualify for legal help?

    Fires, floods, burst pipes, roof collapses, electrical issues, and vehicle impacts may all qualify—especially if insurance is denying or underpaying your valid claim.

  • What should I do if my claim is denied or delayed?

    Contact an attorney. We’ll review your policy and the denial letter, determine your rights, and file an appeal or lawsuit if necessary to pursue the compensation you're owed.

  • How much is my property damage claim worth?

    It depends on the extent of damage, repair estimates, loss of use, personal belongings affected, and your policy limits. We help ensure every loss is properly valued.

  • Can I sue a neighbor or business if their actions damaged my property?

    Yes. If someone else’s negligence caused the damage—like construction errors, falling trees, or fire—you may have a third-party claim in addition to your insurance.

  • Do I need to pay upfront for legal help?

    No. We handle property damage cases on a contingency fee basis. That means no upfront costs—you only pay if we win your case.
