Think your insurer is your ally after a fire, flood, or storm? Attorney Jim Kenny explains why first-party property claims are won with precision; policy language, documentation, and the right expert…not optimism. We take you inside the real process: how carriers anchor low using massive line-item estimates, why vacancy and occupancy rules are silent deal breakers, and how ACV, RCV, and depreciation holdbacks actually play out when timelines slip.
For owners and investors, this is a blueprint: choose adequate limits with a strong carrier, communicate openly with your broker about occupancy and renovations, verify endorsements for ordinance or law coverage, and maintain a clean paper trail from day one. We also explore climate and inflation pressures driving more hail and severe weather claims in the Midwest, and what that means for timelines, budgets, and negotiations. If your claim has been delayed, underpaid, or denied, Jim’s playbook shows how to regain leverage with facts, deadlines, and policy terms, so you get paid what it really costs to rebuild.
