Consumer specialists will be able to provide consumers with assistance in understanding their insurance policies and the process of filing a claim as well as company contact information.

If you have questions regarding what your policy covers, we are here to assist,” said Chlora Lindley-Myers, director of the department. “We have trained technical experts standing by who can help review policies and assist with claims if needed.”

Generally, homeowners insurance does not offer protection against flood losses. Homeowners should check their policies for exclusions, such as “water damage.”
