Wisconsin Legal Counsel For Wind And Hail Damage Claims

Last updated on May 13, 2025

You may not think wind and hail damage significantly threaten your home or business property. However, the damage it causes can be significant. Whether hail damages your roof and windows or strong winds cause a tree to fall on your property, you deserve compensation to address the damage.

However, if your insurance company won’t cooperate, our lawyers at MGW Law can help. We understand that communicating with the insurance company can be frustrating and that by delaying or denying your coverage, the company may be acting in bad faith. If that’s the case, we can rely on our over 50 years of combined experience in the insurance industry to fight for the payout you deserve for many types of property damage claims and hold the insurance company accountable.

Common Bad Faith Tactics Used By Wind And Hail Damage Insurers

Tactics used to avoid paying claims can include things like:

  • Failing to make timely payments to cover damages
  • Refusing to provide explanations for claim delays or denials
  • Misinterpreting what is and is not covered in your insurance policy
  • Conducting biased or lackluster investigations into the cause of damages

These are only a few examples. If you believe your insurer may be acting in bad faith to deny you compensation, call us at 920-383-3911. We can help you determine whether what they are doing is legal.

Seasonal Disasters In Wisconsin Can Complicate Insurance Claims

Wisconsin primarily experiences wind and hail-related storms during the spring and summer months. In some cases, these storms can also happen in the winter months. Seasonal storms like these can complicate these claims, especially when encountering issues related to wind and hail risk periods, microbursts and straight-line wind events. Our attorneys can help you tackle these challenges head-on by leveraging historical data and coverage thresholds.

How We Can Support You With Wind And Hail Damage Claims

We have the knowledge and skill needed to assist you with many cases of wind and hail damage; the common situations are described below.

Addressing Roof Damage Assessment Manipulation

Improper roof inspections can lead to disputes over wind damage versus wear and tear or shingle lifting. We will advocate for accurate hail impact assessments and address any depreciation calculation abuse, ensuring your roof damage claims are thoroughly and reasonably evaluated.

Navigating Engineering Report Issues

Biased engineering assessments can complicate your claim process. Our attorneys can challenge wind speed threshold disputes, weather data manipulation, and selective evidence consideration. Engineering reports should be independent and comprehensive to assess your claim fairly.

Handling Matching Issues In Partial Replacements

Partial replacements can lead to disputes over whether replacement parts fit with what you already have in your home or business. Whether it’s siding or roofing, we are here to help you advocate for restoring your property’s aesthetics to ensure it maintains its original value.

Addressing Siding And Exterior Component Damage

Wind and hail can severely damage your siding, trim and gutters. We can handle disputes over vinyl and aluminum siding, exterior trim evaluations, and outdoor structure coverage limitations. We aim to fight for the money you need to restore your property.

You Deserve Adequate Compensation For The Damage You’ve Endured

Wind and hail damage can be severe. When your insurer does not provide you with the compensation or coverage you need to restore your property, you may feel worried about how you will afford to fix the damage. That’s where we can step in.
