Hurricane Harvey Flooding in Refugio

Hurricane Harvey took a heavy toll on most of Southeast Texas in August 2017, leaving catastrophic damage and destruction in its wake. The storm stalled over Texas several times, causing massive amounts of flooding and wind damage. Hurricane Harvey flooding in Refugio, Texas, caused particularly severe chaos and panic amongst both evacuated residents and those who refused to leave. This storm has been regarded as one of the most devastating hurricanes to hit Texas in decades. Now that the damage has been done and residents are returning to their homes in Refugio, there is a new wave of confusion and fear about what people are supposed to do next.

We can help you to file a claim, assess damages, and fight for compensation for you and your family. In major disasters like this, you will need a strong experienced legal team on your side to defend your rights to compensation and help get you back on your feet. Accounts of property ownership and damages need to be as specific as possible when it comes to filing your claim. We will keep a thorough record of all damage to be compensated, as well as the details of your situation that are relevant to your case.

Because of the sheer amount of people affected, insurance companies tend to work through Refugio hurricane claims on a first come first serve basis. You may not know the first thing about submitting a claim and all it entails, but our lawyers in Refugio can file the tedious paperwork for you quickly and with as little stress to you as possible. The faster your claim is filed, the faster you can get the money you need to rebuild your life.

After it is clear that a hurricane has left region-wide cataclysmic damage, insurance companies will try to pay as little as possible to the victims in order to preserve their own revenue. Many adjustors will deny a claim upon the excuse that the damage is too insignificant, or that paperwork was not filed correctly. Our attorneys can make sure predatory insurance companies do not take advantage of you and your family.

When filing a claim, it is important of the insurance agent’s job to assess the damage and take pictures for evidence. However, fallen trees and rising waters have left many roads inaccessible, entire lakes materializing overnight have isolated families, and even entire communities have been rendered unrecognizable by Hurricane Harvey flooding in Refugio; your insurance agent may not be able to get out to your property for weeks or even months to come. These obstacles won’t stop the intrepid lawyers at Carabin Shaw, who will make sure all details and damages are documented and photographed in a timely manner so that the insurance company cannot dispute your claim.

If you do not have flooding insurance, as many of the victims in Refugio did not, we can even help find government programs and grants best suited for you to help recover some of your lost quality of life. There are also several local nonprofits where you can get much needed supplies and even shelter while your house is under repair. Our compassionate and community-oriented attorneys will do everything they can to make sure this nightmare does not leave you and your family destitute.
