ATTENTION ANYONE WHO KNOWS SOMEONE WITH PROPERTY DAMAGE FROM HURRICANE HARVEY:
The Texas legislature recently passed a hurricane bill that protects the insurance industry and adversely impacts property damage claims made by homeowners.
NOTE:  The law goes into effect THIS FRIDAY, September 1, 2017.
To take advantage of the CURRENT Texas insurance laws protecting property owners with regard to damage claims resulting from Hurricane Harvey, policyholders MUST send a written message or email directly to their insurance carrier that (1) specifically references their claim; AND (2) is dated BEFORE SEPTEMBER 1, 2017. Telephone messages will not suffice to give written notice.
Keep a written copy of everything that you send to your insurance carrier.
PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH ANYONE WHO MAY BE AFFECTED.
