How It Works

That is how it is supposed to work.

Insurance policies are contracts. The insured pays premiums to the insurance company, and the insurance company takes on the risk of financial loss if a covered event occurs. Homeowners expect this insurance policy to protect them against a natural disaster or other unexpected event.

Texas Has Seen Almost 2,000 Severe Weather Events in 2023

1,016 Large Hail Reports
78 Tornadoes
894 Wind Reports

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center released their data of severe weather reports so far in 2023 for the entire country. This report lays out the number of tornadoes, strong wind events and large hail reports from every state.

Some insurance companies, in an effort to save money, refuse to act in good faith. The pressure to cut costs and save money unfairly is especially great after a natural disaster or severe weather event because there can be hundreds of thousands of claims that must be paid. If your insurance company unfairly denied your valid claim or refused to offer you a reasonable settlement, you may be entitled to bring a bad faith insurance lawsuit.
