Common Reasons People’s Trust May Deny Your Claim
If you are facing a denied People’s Trust property claim, you may be unsure what your next step should be. Luckily, most denied property damage claims occur for basic reasons. For example, you may just need to submit more evidence to get approval. In other cases, we may have to negotiate with the insurance company to recover your damages.
Here are a few reasons your property damage claim may have been denied:
- Insufficient proof: You must be able to prove your losses. If you submit insufficient proof of losses, People’s Trust may deny your property claim. You may need to provide photographs or video evidence of the damage.
- Failure to meet deadlines: Florida has a four-year statute of limitations on seeking damages for property loss. You may be unable to recover damages after this time. Keep in mind that hurricane victims only have three years to file a claim.
- Late payments: If you paid your premiums late or failed to make payments at all, your coverage may not have been in effect when your property was damaged.
- False statements: If People’s Trust suspects you are being untruthful about what damages occurred or how they happened, they may deny your claim.
- Lack of coverage for the event or type of damage: Many homeowners may not realize they need additional insurance to cover certain damages, such as those caused by flooding.

Here are just a few examples of things we can do to help:
Review Your Coverage
Insurance policies are often written in complex language that can be difficult to understand. We will review your policy to ensure you claim all losses you are eligible to recover. Our team will also look for additional coverage that may cover your losses.
For example, car insurance may cover flooding damage in your car even if your People’s Trust insurance policy will not. We will pursue all avenues of compensation for your property damage.
Gather More Evidence
If necessary, we may gather more evidence to prove the damages you suffered. In some cases, this is all that we need to do to overturn a denial. We may collect receipts, photos, videos, or hire an independent appraiser to calculate your full damages.
We will use this evidence to build a strong case for your appeal.
File an Appeal with People’s Trust
Once we have gathered enough evidence, we will file an appeal with People’s Trust. We will outline your damages, show why your policy covers this damage, and push for a fast resolution of your claim.
Fight for Your Rights
Throughout the process, we will protect your right to recover compensation. Our team will ensure your claim meets all required deadlines and defend you against shady insurance practices. We will even fight for your rights in court, if necessary.
