Your business had no power, no lights, no phone. No motorcar. Not a single luxury, as the song goes from Gilligan’s Island. All of this meant that your business was shuttered, maybe not only figuratively but literally. Now, getting back up and running may not be an immediate option.

Business Interruption Claims- Before a Hurricane Hits

You will need to take the following steps:

  1. Remove all key business documents from risky locations.
  2. Buy a watertight container place all key papers inside it, including:
    • Business Agreements
    • Tax returns
    • Sales records
    • Bank accounts
    • Payroll records
    • Other records specific to your business
  3. Gather all of your personal documents, and add these to the container as well, including:
    • Will
    • Trust documents
    • Mortgage documents
    • Marriage licenses
    • Passports
    • Birth certificates
  4. It may be a good idea to scan key records and email them securely to a secure -server off location. Or to buy and use an Iron Key memory stick with a password to store the data. The data can be stored as PDF images, also. Originals are always highly preferred, for legal purposes, of course.

Business Interruption Lawsuit – After a Hurricane Hits

If your business papers are not soggy or windblown, you should locate and assemble certain proof. Use the section above as a reference.

Document your business interruption claim.

Anticipate that records will be asked for. You cannot simply say ” sorry, everything was all destroyed, now pay up.” The insurance companies may tolerate and grant some leeway or laxity of providing immediate proofs and papers but not for long and not if you are going to ask them for a lot of money.

The lack of proof is usually something that grinds the processing of a business interruption insurance claim to a screeching halt, and this is usually the point in time when you should turn to us, your Hurricane Business Interruption Claims Attorneys.

There are some different types or categories of loss when your Hurricane Lawyer looks at your policy.

Most business interruption policies categorize the types of loss into:

  • Operating Expenses – including rent or mortgage.
  • Payroll – sometimes not including key officers compensation.
  • Profits – sometimes not including all lost profits as if the business was on a forward path and growing. This last item, loss of profits, is the subject of many business interruption lawsuits and claims that come about from Hurricane losses.
  • Loss of business data– this category of business loss is quite technical and will clearly require a free legal consultation with a business interruption insurance attorney.
