Tropical Storm Laura: What does this mean for insurance coverage?
As Tropical Storm Laura makes its way through the Caribbean and into the state of Florida, you might be gearing up your hurricane supplies and evacuation plans for your family. Have you thought about if you have the right insurance coverage in the event of a Hurricane?
Most people don't know that when there is a named storm, insurance companies close down, preventing customers from purchasing new or adding additional coverage to protect them from the financial damage that could result from a storm.
We anticipate that insurance companies will begin to temporarily close down over the next two days and will remain closed until the storm passes.
The Miami Insurance Brokers team is here to help you get the right coverage needed before the storm comes and before the insurance companies close down.
If you would like to review your insurance coverage, call us today to speak with one of our licensed insurance agents to 866-729-1274.
