Supplemental Claims and Reopen Claims - Is There a Difference?

Posted on July 7, 2010 by Brandon McWherter

Shaun Marker and Jeremy Tyler, attorneys at Merlin Law Group in Florida, recently posted a pair of blog posts - here and here -- regarding the difference between "supplemental" claims and "reopen" claims.  Indeed, there is a difference, and Shaun and Tyler did a good job showing why.  The distinction is especially relevant here in Tennessee after the recent flooding, as many Nashville and Middle Tennessee residents will find additional, previously unknown, damage in the months to come.

Thanks as always to the fine minds at the Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog.

Brandon,

Thanks for the kind words.

Good luck to you with the Flood claims. I have often thought that the strict regulatory requirements of National Flood should be relaxed to avoid unfair results. Congress should address that situation after it reinstates the program.
