Obtaining a Fair Settlement on Your Fire Claim
- Have you had a major fire (or water damage) in your home?
- Are you concerned that your insurance company is primarily looking out for its own interests and nobody is looking out for your interests?
- Are you confused by the language of your insurance policy or by the insurance claims process that you are now involved in?
- Are you unable to determine precisely what benefits are provided by your insurance policy? Do you understand what is covered and what is not?
- Do you feel intimidated or coerced by your insurance company?
- Has your insurance company offered to settle your fire claim for an amount you believe is significantly less than you will need to fully repair your house?
- Are you being pressured to settle quickly, or for an amount you are uncomfortable with?
- Are you concerned that your personal property (the damaged contents of your home) may not be (or has not been) fully inventoried and properly valued by your insurance company?
If your answers to one or more of these questions is “yes,” then contact Bruce C.F. McArthur immediately for a free consultation. My goal is to help you to obtain a full, fair and reasonable settlement from your insurance company.
My Background Is of Benefit to You
My legal practice heavily emphasizes representing fire damage (and water damage) victims. My goal is to help you obtain a full, fair and reasonable settlement from your homeowners insurance company so that you can afford to fully repair your home. I have been handling fire damage (and water damage ) claims for homeowners for more than six years. I have been a litigation and insurance disputes lawyer (among other areas of legal practice) for approximately 30 years. During that time, I have specialized in various legal practice areas, including, among others, insurance litigation, insurance claims, construction disputes, property damage disputes and home remodeling disputes. For the first half of my career, when involved in insurance disputes, I represented insurance companies against their policy holders.
Since establishing the Law Offices of Bruce C.F. McArthur about 14 years ago, however, I have represented policyholders against their insurance companies. My background in representing insurance companies had given me a familiarity with insurance company practices and procedures, particularly the claims process, as well as the regulations, procedures and laws insurance companies must comply with in the state of California. I now use that knowledge and experience, along with the knowledge and experience I have gained in handling construction litigation, in the service of individual homeowners.
Many homeowners settle their fire claims for tens of thousands of dollars less than they should, and never know that they have received less than they are entitled to. My goal is to make sure that does not happen to you. I pride myself on hard work and obsessive dedication to my clients’ interests. Upon request, I can provide references from clients I have represented on fire or water damage claims. You may learn more by consulting my case results page.
I provide free initial consultations so that I can familiarize myself with the general facts pertaining to your fire, your insurance policy and your claim, and to evaluate (and to give you an opportunity to evaluate) whether or not I can be of significant assistance to you. Contact me today to set up a consultation.
