Your Duties After Loss
Every insurance policy has a provision that defines the insureds’ duties after a loss. These duties typically include:
Promptly report the claim
Show the damaged property
Provide the insurer with documents and photographs requested by the insurer
Provide the insurer recorded statements
Submit to examination under oath upon request and to cooperate with the insurer’s investigation of the loss
Failure to comply with your policy’s Your Duties After Loss provision can result in a forfeiture of coverage for your loss.
If you would like to discuss how to avoid forfeiting coverage under your policy or if your insurer has already declared a forfeiture of coverage and denial of your claim, please feel free to call our office and ask to speak to an attorney.
