Denied or Under-Paid Claims
Available in Florida, Illinois, and Wisconsin
Has your insurance claim been denied or underpaid? Our experts reopen and renegotiate claims to recover the funds you're owed.
Understanding Denied or Under-Paid Claims
If your insurance company denied your claim, delayed payment, or offered a settlement far below actual repair costs, you have options. Public adjusters specialize in re-opening denied or underpaid claims, identifying carrier errors, and presenting supplemental evidence that changes the outcome. In many cases, we recover significantly more than the original offer.
Common Damage We Document
- Claims denied for alleged "pre-existing" damage
- Settlements below actual repair estimates
- The scope of loss that excluded hidden damage
- Depreciation applied incorrectly or excessively
- Coverage disputes over policy language
- Claims closed without proper inspection
- Supplemental damage discovered after settlement
- Carrier delays leading to statute of limitations concerns
Why Denied or Under-Paid Claims Are Under-paid
Insurance carriers use specific strategies to minimize payouts on denied/underpaid claims. Here's what to watch for:
- Carrier adjusters conducted incomplete inspections and missed damage
- Policy language was misinterpreted to exclude legitimate losses
- Depreciation was calculated incorrectly or using outdated schedules
- Policyholders accepted low-ball offers without understanding their rights
- Supplemental damage was discovered after the claim was prematurely closed
How Liberty Can Help
We start with a forensic review of your denial letter or settlement breakdown, identifying every error, omission, and misapplication of policy language. Then we conduct our own independent inspection to document damage the carrier missed. Armed with new evidence and a detailed supplemental claim, we re-engage the carrier and negotiate for a fair settlement. If necessary, we coordinate with attorneys for appraisal or litigation support.
