While not included in every policy, business interruption coverage can pay for your lost income due to a fire.
You should consider hiring a fire damage coverage lawyer if your insurance company has acted unfairly, lied, or mistreated you in any way. You should also seek legal assistance if there is any question regarding what started the fire at your business, if the damage was particularly severe, or if you have reason to believe your claim may not be processed fairly. Even in cases of simple claims, it may still be a good idea to get a lawyer to ensure your coverage is protected.
Seeking legal guidance for the claims process is important because these claims often involve very high damage and repair costs, with business owners relying on a fair payout for continued business operations. A capable legal team can help you determine what you may be owed, build a strong compensation claim, and explain and pursue your legal options in case of bad faith. Resolving insurance disputes can be incredibly complex, but a lawyer has the knowledge you need.

Failing to Process Claims
Insurance providers may refuse to investigate claims, despite strong evidence. This may be bad faith.
