Business Interruption Claim for Hotel
Our client, the owner of a beachfront hotel in Florida, experienced substantial business interruption due to Hurricane Sally. The hurricane caused significant structural damage to the hotel, including roof damage, flooding, and severe property loss. As a result, the hotel had to close for an extended period to undergo repairs, leading to a substantial loss of revenue and additional operational costs.
Despite having a business interruption insurance policy with their insurer, the claim was initially denied. The insurance company disputed the extent of the damage and argued that the business interruption was not adequately covered under the policy.
