May 3, 2024 – A Highlands Ranch church faced dire financial strain after being denied coverage for significant water damage by their insurance provider. Despite the insurance company citing the damage as a flood issue not covered by the policy, Jon successfully argued that the cause, a burst irrigation pipe, fell outside the legal definition of a flood, leading to a wrongful denial.
The extensive damage, flooding nearly the entire basement and impacting various parts of the property, posed a substantial financial burden on the church, with remediation costs exceeding $200,000. Through diligent legal advocacy, Jon managed to reverse the coverage denial, securing payment for the remediation costs and initiating the process for rebuilding the property.
While the case is still ongoing, Jon emphasizes the importance of seeking legal assistance early in such situations. By intervening early and navigating insurance company procedures, individuals and organizations facing similar challenges can potentially turn a coverage denial into a successful claim, seeking compensation for damages and holding insurers accountable for unreasonable conduct.
