When the windstorm hit the property owned by Mr. McClinton, the damage was more extensive than first seemed. The wind caused damage to the roofing system and exterior of the building to the point where weaknesses were created that could potentially allow for water damage to occur.
Even with the considerable loss incurred, State Farm first paid the claim in the amount of $33,754.32. However, none of the aforementioned amounts captured the total extent of the damage involving the windstorm or the cost of restoring the property to its pre-loss condition. It was with these concerns in mind that Mr. McClinton sought professional help.
As a result, the claim was referred to attorneys with little experience, and the case was not given the attention it deserved. To rectify the situation, the claim was referred to experienced attorneys from SPJ Adjusting. The first step was to carry out an inspection to identify the overlooked and underestimated repairs resulting from the windstorm.
The consequence was a better claim outcome:
Down Payment: $33,754.32
Final Settlement: $39,681.94
This ensured Williams McClinton was able to undertake proper repairs. Attention to detail and fairness by SPJ Adjusting ensured that the claim was settled in the correct manner.
