        “Accident Case”

        Goldstein, Buckley, Cechman, Rice and Purtz, PA was the only law firm who would take our car accident case. Andrea Pleimling Smith was very thorough, explained everything in a very detailed fashion, and was easy to reach when questions arose. She kept us informed every step of the way. Without her, we would have suffered a severe financial loss due to an accident which was not our fault. Florida’s No Fault law is terrible and very unfair. Andrea and her team were very helpful in recouping all of the money we were required to spend!

        Karen and David B.

        “Thank you again for everything”

        Thank you again for everything you did for me. Your compassion and concern was greatly appreciated. I have all the faith in the world with you by my side. If ever I know someone who needs an attorney, I will recommend your office. Everyone I had dealings with was very professional. Good job.

        Terri D.

When you have an insurance policy that is supposed to cover hurricane and storm damage you might wonder why they’re denying your claim. Not only are you a victim of mother nature but now you are a victim of your insurance company withholding what they should be giving to you.

        Insurance companies, after all, are businesses. They want to make a profit and that can motivate them to act in certain ways such as trying to deny a claim that they should be paying. They either do that or they try to pay as little as they possibly can when you come to them for a hurricane property damage claim. This happens to way too many people who have never missed a payment and rely on their insurance to help them recover from this.

        Five Hurricane Categories  

        With hurricanes, heavy winds and rains that move through communities and tear them apart without any discrimination. Hurricanes can tear out streets, roofs of houses, they can down power lines and uproot trees as well as completely destroy traffic lights.

        The amount of damage that we see in a hurricane depends upon what the category of the hurricane is. Here is an outline of each of the five categories of hurricanes and what they typically entail:

        Category 1 Hurricanes: These hurricanes will bring heavy damage to roofs and siding can tear shingles and gutters off of buildings and houses. The gusts of wind often are above 74 mph. Trees can snap, and routes can be blown over. Powerlines and potholes can also be damaged resulting in power outages.

        Category 2 Hurricanes: These storms have wind gusts that are above 96 miles an hour and can cause major damage to properties. There will be severe damage to trees and power lines causing outages.

        Category 3 Hurricanes: The storms have wind gusts that are above 111 mph and these storms will cause severe damage to trees that are deeply rooted and almost always cause issues with electricity and water supply.

        Category 4 Hurricanes: The storms will have wind gusts of over 131 mph. They almost always cause severe damages to homes and buildings. Trees almost always are snapped and uprooted, and powerline poles can come down completely. Because of the nature of these storms rescue workers can have a hard time reaching residential places.

        Category 5 Hurricanes: These hurricanes have wind gusts that go above 155 mph and they are considered to be the most dangerous hurricanes. There have only been three category five hurricanes To make landfall in the United States in recorded history. These hurricanes can destroy even the best built homes. Structures can completely collapse, and roofs can come completely off. This is more than shingles or siding pulling off of the house. It is deep property damage. Even the most deeply rooted of trees can be ripped from the earth and turned into projectiles.
