The Insurance Information Network of California has compiled a listing of insurance company claims telephone numbers. If you have been evacuated due to a wildfire, you may be eligible for additional living expenses, a part of your standard homeowner insurance policy.

Wildfires wreak havoc across much of the California landscape forcing residents to flee from their homes on a yearly basis.

IINC has compiled information to help homeowners prepare, survive and recover from these devastating fires.  Insurance company claim phone numbers can be found here.

After a wildfire, people may have questions about their insurance coverage. The Insurance Information Network of California offers answers to some of these basic questions.

Q. If my house burns down, will my insurance company pay to have it rebuilt?
A. The typical homeowners policy covers damage due to wind, fire and lightning. It will also pay if flames and smoke have damaged any other part of your home.

As Californians rush to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, they are reminded of their own threat of wildfires, earthquakes, floods and other hazards. For many families, survival and recovery may depend on a carefully-crafted household disaster plan.
