Filing a Claim for Fire Damage in Texas

After a fire has damaged your property in some capacity, you should take the following steps:


  1. Call the fire department to the scene and ensure the safety of everyone involved. Do not re-enter the damaged property until the authorities give you permission to do so.
  2. Take pictures and videos of all damage caused by the fire.
  3. Obtain a copy of the fire report from your fire department.
  4. Consider hiring an attorney who can help you understand your policy and its limitations, including dwelling coverage, personal property loss, and additional living expenses.
  5. Contact your insurance company and notify them of the fire.
  6. Compile a detailed inventory of damaged or lost property, including descriptions, the purchase date, and the cost of replacement or repair.
  7. Submit your claim, along with all necessary documentation. The insurance company will then review your claim and send an adjuster to assess the damage.
  8. Review the insurance company’s settlement offer. Your lawyer can help determine if it’s fair and covers all your losses. If the offer is insufficient, your lawyer can pursue further negotiation, mediation, or even litigation to secure a better outcome.
