Condominium fires in Mississippi happen more frequently than many people may realize. Many condominium fires are minor and do not result in substantial damage, but some fires are more serious and lead to severe property damage and even personal injuries. Condominium owners have insurance policies that cover claims associated with matters that happen within their condominium units. Such insurance policies may even cover damage to neighboring units or common areas if the damage was caused by a fire originating in one condominium unit.
For the most part, damage to common areas of a condominium building will be handled by the condominium association’s insurance policy, but if a fire can be blamed on one person, that person may be held liable. For example, if a fire originates in one owner’s unit (such as a stove fire), and the fire spreads to neighboring units or common areas, that unit owner may be considered at-fault for all subsequent damage and injuries. As such, the originating unit owner’s insurance policy may pay claims filed by neighboring unit owners.
However, because so many insurance policies are involved when it comes to condominium fires that cause damage to one or more units or common areas, it can be extremely complicated to determine what policy should be paying out claims. Given that the insurance process is not only confusing, but also stressful, it is a good idea to work alongside a Mississippi Fire Damage and Injury Lawyer who can streamline the process and help both condominium owners and condominium associations obtain the compensation they deserve through valid insurance claims.
