Virginia storm claim rules
Reporting: Report storm damage to your insurer promptly, most policies require notice 'as soon as practicable' after the loss.
Deadline: The deadline to file and to sue on a property claim is set by your policy and your state's law, and varies widely. Don't wait: read your policy's 'suit against us' / claim-reporting clause and confirm with your state insurance department.
Deductibles: Many policies in storm-prone areas use a separate wind/hail deductible, a percentage (commonly 1%–5%) of your dwelling limit rather than a flat dollar amount. Check your declarations page.
