How to file insurance claim after severe weather damage
SUMMARY: Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney has provided tips for Mississippi residents who are filing insurance claims due to storm damage. He advises informing your insurance company about the extent of the damage and providing them with your contact information if you are not staying on the property. It is important to file the claim as soon as possible and cooperate fully with the insurance company. Take photographs of the damage and inventory your home for damaged or lost items.
