Q. I had a rental policy for insurance on my house and it was destroyed by a tornado. I need a lawyer I'm not getting any
A: If you file your insurance claim, the insurance company has obligations -- mandated by the state -- to reply, and to be "on the clock" in processing your claim. Here are a few things to keep in mind.

First, you are dealing with a property insurance claim if this is related to damages on the house. The coverage for this is usually a homeowners or property insurance policy, and not a renters policy (which usually only provides coverage for contents). So, you want to make sure you have the right coverage. If you are renting, the landlord should have the property insured, but unfortunately, that is the landlord's policy and you won't really have many rights associated with it.

Second, if a claim does exist for coverage under YOUR policy, then you will want to get smart about the insurance laws in Michigan. Each state has rules about how fast the insurance company must reply to you, and how fast they must process the claim. You need to make your claim; then submit your proof (a Proof of Loss, for example), and then hold their feet to the fire to approve your claim and pay it. If they don't, you'll have a cause of action/lawsuit against the insurance company, and if you do everything right, potentially, you'll be entitled to damages and penalties.

Good luck!
