The level of this accomplishment is best understood after analysis of the meaning of the appraisal clause contained in the boilerplate language of property insurance policies in Illinois. Property Damage is damage to or the destruction of public or private property, caused either by either a person who is not its owner or by natural phenomena. The term is most commonly used to refer to injury, destruction or damage of another persons property by either negligence, willful destruction, or by some act of nature. The plaintiff or or owner of the damaged property typically receives compensation by evidence of replacement value, cost of repairs, loss of use until repaired or replaced.

The appraisal clause is a provision in your policy required by Illinois Law that provides a process to resolve a dispute between the insured and the insurance company over the value of damaged property. When the insurance company makes a "lowball" offer and the insured rejects the offer, appraisal clause allows the clients of the Hoag Law Group, LLC. to demand a higher value for their damaged property.

Because each case is unique in details and structure, therefore it takes a highly skilled and experienced legal group, to get the maximum property damage recovery allowable by law. The Hoag Law Group at Insurance-Claim-Attorneys.com have experience not only with Illinois insurance law as it applies to each case, but also to each individual jurisdiction that the case is being heard in. As court procedures and judges vary, familiarity with the environment the case is being heard in is significant key to the Hoag Law Group, LLC.'s success.
