FIRE CLAIMS IN TEXAS
HOMEOWNER’S INSURANCE LAWYER IN HOUSTON
As our society becomes more geared towards electronics, the potential fire hazards in the average household are on a steady increase. Serious dangers can easily go unnoticed and catch even the most careful of us all off-guard. Depending on the situation, it might be impossible to safely extinguish a blaze before it causes extensive damage.
Common sources of household fires include:
- Exposed wires
- Leaking gas mains
- Crowded outlets (“octopus connections”)
- Indoor fireplaces
- Defective cooking equipment
- Unattended candles
For many people, the only solace after a devastating in-house fire is that their insurance providers will help them recover. Or, at least, they should help them recover. Here at Dick Law Firm, PLLC, we have seen far too many instances of insurance companies doing the most to pay out the least to their customers.
When you are being treated unfairly by your insurer, you should take action with us. Call 833-7RIGHTS today.
FILING A CLAIM AFTER A FIRE
Part of receiving fair recoveries after a fire has ravaged your living space is ensuring that you have adequate evidence to back up your claims. Even though it might be improbable to keep an account of absolutely everything of value in your home, you should do your best to catalogue the pieces of particular worth. Not only will you be creating a list of these items, you should also take photographic evidence of their condition and where they are stored regularly within your home.
Items you should consider cataloguing include:
- Computers
- Expensive furniture
- Heirlooms
- Automobiles (garage storage)
FIRE CLAIM DENIAL SUPPORT IN HOUSTON, TEXAS
Houston’s humid climate and frequent thunderstorms can increase the risk of household fires, leaving residents to face both emotional and financial hardships. While the Houston Fire Department provides valuable information on fire safety, the real challenge often begins after a fire, when homeowners encounter the frustrating reality of insurance claim denials.
Many neighborhoods, including Montrose and The Heights, have reported cases where residents struggled to receive fair compensation. The devastation of losing a home is only worsened when insurance companies minimize payouts or outright deny valid claims. For affected Houstonians, this can feel like an uphill battle with little support during a critical time.
Navigating the claims process is equally demanding. Although resources like the Texas Department of Insurance provide guidance, many homeowners still find themselves lost when insurance companies reject claims. Detailed documentation of the damage and lost items is crucial — these records can be instrumental in contesting a denial and strengthening your case.
At Dick Law Firm, we understand the unique hurdles Houston residents face. Our mission is to stand by you as you fight back against unfair insurance practices. We are dedicated to securing the compensation you rightfully deserve, giving you the means to rebuild your life after such a traumatic loss.

If your insurance company is trying to dodge its responsibilities, you need to find a way to stand up for your rights as their customer. The best choice might be to team up with us at Dick Law Firm.
