What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MD
My mom has been staying with me in NY as she took VERY ill and I couldn't go stay with her as I have children in school. She had her mail forwarded to come to my home and over the summer, her basement flooded. We have been talking with the insurance company since it happened getting the house repaired. The only thing we were told was we had to fax a copy of the deed to them as the policy was in my grandparents' names but now the house is in my mom's name since their death. We did that. NOTHING has been mentioned about the account being past due much less cancelled for non payment. (My mom JUST got an envelope with a couple of bills in it from a neighbor. We have NO idea why these weren't forwarded by the post office when we know mail is still being forwarded.)
My mom called to make a payment and the woman was very rude to her telling her why did it take so long to get in touch with them. My mom tried explaining and told her she would bring the account current right now, but the woman refused. We are freaking out. There have been A LOT of repairs and loss and now we are worried the insurance company is going to suddenly say they aren't going to pay anything even though I have TONS of emails from them for the past couple of months where they have talked about the payments they agreed to.
Can you please tell me what we could be facing here legally?
Thank you.
