Big insurance companies are intentionally delaying and denying claims, as well as slashing the adjuster’s initial estimates to lowball Louisiana policyholders.

HB 604 by Rep. Garofalo and HB 183 by Rep. Firment ties policyholders up in red tape by creating a complicated and prolonged process that makes it difficult for storm victims to repair their home or small business after a storm.
