Claim help
Some homeowners want legal advice after a claim is denied, or when they are trying to understand their options in a dispute with an insurer. This page is general information. It is not legal advice, not a diagnosis of your case, and not a promise that you need an attorney — or that an attorney will take your matter.
We are not a law firm and not an insurance adjuster. Nothing on this page is legal advice, and a recommendation is not a promise about your coverage or your claim. Free for homeowners.

The Exterior Desk is a matching service. We are not a law firm, we do not give legal advice, and we are not a lawyer referral service. If we recommend an attorney, that is an introduction to one person in a network we already know. You decide whether to call them, hire them, or do nothing.
People often start looking after a denial, or when they want help understanding options in a dispute. Others still need a contractor or a public adjuster first. You do not have to know the difference on our form. We ask what you want help with most, in plain language, and recommend one person to start with when we have someone who can help.
When we recommend an attorney, we personally know or have worked with that person, and we verify their license with the State of Ohio. You should still review any engagement letter yourself. We do not guarantee the outcome of a claim or a dispute.

No. We cannot tell you whether you have a case. Only a licensed attorney you hire can advise you about your situation.
There is no fee for a homeowner to request a recommendation. You are not obligated to hire anyone.
