Welcome to the Awareness/Preparedness
Forum. It was created with the idea of having meaningful dialogue,
and having the public examine its own authority: authority routinely
given up by the public and routinely taken up by the company.
Although this forum is not accepting new posts, many insurance claim
problems and solutions posted here are case studies, and can be searched by topic,
e.g., total loss, hail, etc.. The property claim field is one in which
references and case authority have a history to stay the same for many
decades. Meaningful, new developments will be posted as they become
known.

A
Disaster Prepared/Aftermath Forum has been created with helpful information, and for comments, experiences, and consequences of fire, tornado, hurricane, flood, earthquake, or other disaster.
Please refer your property claim questions
there for additional help.
Thanks for visiting!

With such compelling information, the question is why haven't we been able to do more to prevent the crisis of an unprepared public?
The answer is a mystery.
