Business Interruption Claims in Houston, Texas
Running a business comes with many risks. To minimize these risks, insurance can help. Coverage for business interruptions – whether due to natural calamities or property damages – enables your business to recover losses due to such events.
Unfortunately, filing a claim is not always a straightforward process. Most insurance companies deny a claim due to unclear policy limitations.
A denied business interruption claim should be the least of your worries, especially when your business still faces problems. Rather than deal with your insurance company alone, let a business interruption claim attorney from McLaurin Law thoroughly review your policy.

When Is A Business Interruption Policy Necessary?
Commercial establishments that maintain an office space would find a business interruption policy necessary. Generally, business interruption insurance covers losses incurred during calamities that affect the structure of the office building. These include natural disasters like hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes. It may also include fires and property damage caused by accidents and violence.
It is important to note that a basic business interruption policy will only cover losses incurred from when the office is destroyed until the property is fixed and deemed usable.
To claim coverage, the insured business must prove that operations were interrupted due to property damage caused by calamities, fires, and other covered threats. And as a result of the interruption, the business incurred losses.
What to Do If Your Business Interruption Claim Was Denied
Many insurance providers are notorious for denying claims, even though the policy clearly covers the incident. If this happens to you, you should first consult a business interruption claim attorney.
An attorney can help you review the policy and determine if there are merits you can use to file a valid dispute. Appealing the denial is also an option. Litigating the denial could be possible, though this is merely a last resort. If you want a personal consultation and discuss strategies, give McLaurin Law a call today and consult with our Houston business interruption claim attorney.
Extended Policies and Coverage
While a basic business interruption policy only covers losses incurred in the event of property damage, some providers offer additional coverage. This coverage comes at a higher price, of course.
Extended business interruption packages provide more comprehensive coverage. Aside from covering business losses due to property damage from calamities, fires, and man-made threats. Comprehensive policies may cover losses due to logistical problems. So, if your business has incurred losses due to problems in the supply chain, then the insurance would cover it. Consult our Houston business interruption claim attorney to know what’s best for you.
