DENVER HAIL DAMAGE ATTORNEYS

In Colorado, insurance carriers have a statutory duty to handle your claim with transparency and speed. If your insurer has unreasonably delayed or denied your hail damage claim, Colorado Revised Statute § 10-3-1115 prohibits such behavior. Under the remedies of C.R.S. § 10-3-1116, you are entitled to recover two times the covered benefit, plus reasonable attorney fees and court costs.

Insurers are still processing, and often lowballing, claims from the historic storms that have battered the Front Range recently. We know their tactics because we track the data:

Insurance adjusters often use a brief 15-minute inspection to classify hail dents as “cosmetic,” claiming they don’t affect your roof’s integrity. We disagree. Research shows that hail impacts of 1.5″ or larger can:

• Fracture the internal fiberglass matting of shingles. [2, 8]
• Compromise the waterproof barrier, leading to mold in as little as 48 hours.
• Void your manufacturer’s warranty, devaluing your property.

If your claim was denied based on “wear and tear” or “cosmetic” reasoning, contact us for an independent forensic engineering review. [8, 9]
