During the first week of September 2011 around 50 homes in the Steiner Ranch area of Travis County, Texas were damaged or destroyed by a large wildfire. The fire burned hundreds of acres and caused as many as 3,000 thousand homes to be evacuated. Many residents did not have enough time to retrieve or protect their belongings from the fire. Local authorities said strong winds caused many flair ups and made the fire difficult to contain. Many residents were forced to wait until the blaze was contained before being allowed to return to their property.
The Amaro Law Firm realizes that sometimes the most trying times for victims of natural disasters come after the event has already taken place. Our attorneys understand that victims of natural disasters can sometimes find the path to recovering compensation for damages from their insurance company burdensome and full of “red tape.” However, the attorneys at the Amaro Law Firm also believe that the emotional healing process of our clients after a disaster like the Steiner Ranch wildfire should involve being fully compensated for their loss caused by the fire. Our attorneys have extensive experience dealing with insurance disputes and we were extremely successful in recovering compensation for our clients following other disasters such as the Hurricane Ike natural disaster. We here at the Amaro Law Firm are eager to put our experience and skill to work for those involved in the Steiner Ranch wildfire.
You don’t have to put up with insurance company tactics which are designed to lower or deny a valid claim. Under the Texas Insurance Code and other laws of our state, there are actions that can be taken by a proven Houston insurance lawyer to seek relief and attorney’s fees for wrongfully denied benefits. At the Amaro Law Firm, we take pride in stepping forward on behalf of everyday citizens who face an uphill battle against insurance companies.
