Storm Damage Checklist

Warning for residents:

Be very careful with storm contractors. The Ohio Department of Insurance and NAIC both warn that after severe storms, fraudulent or aggressive contractors show up fast. File the claim before hiring a contractor, ask for identification, verify licensing and references, avoid big upfront cash demands, and do not let anyone pressure you to sign insurance proceeds or inflate the loss.

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) provides expertise, data, and analysis for insurance commissioners to effectively regulate the industry and protect consumers. Founded in 1871, the U.S. standard-setting organization is governed by the chief insurance regulators from the 50 states.
