Caught in the Middle between Insurance and Construction Companies

It is common for insureds to get caught between insurance companies and construction companies in these situations. We frequently see homeowners who battle with the contractors for years (with no success), only to find out the home had actually be built on a sinkhole prone area. While this may seem unfair, it is not. The insurance company can actually sue the construction company in a claim associated with recovering any payments made to you. This is referred to as “subrogation,” and is a part of the insurance process.
