Bastion Law founding attorney Dan recently joined New Day Northwest host Kelly Hanson to discuss an issue many Washington homeowners face after major storms, fires, and other property damage events: navigating the insurance claim process.
As part of Bastion Law’s ongoing commitment to community education and local outreach, the segment focused on helping homeowners better understand common challenges that can arise during property damage claims and what people should watch for when dealing with insurance companies.
During the conversation, Dan discussed several important topics homeowners often encounter after damage to their homes, including:
- The importance of documenting damage early
- Why repair estimates and insurance estimates may differ
- Common red flags during the claims process
- The financial and emotional stress delays and underpayments can create for families
- Steps homeowners can take to better protect themselves during a claim
For many homeowners, property damage claims happen during already stressful and uncertain situations. Bastion Law believes that helping people understand the process, their rights, and the warning signs of potential claim issues is an important part of serving the local community.
The discussion also highlighted the importance of working with reputable professionals — including contractors, public adjusters, and attorneys when necessary — to help homeowners fully understand the scope of damage and available options.
We appreciate Kelly Hanson and the New Day Northwest team for the opportunity to have these conversations and share practical information with homeowners across Washington.
