The CT Bar Association and its Insurance Law Section provide storm victims with free insurance advice through a free public hotline.

Via a toll-free number (1-866-209-5099) and email address ( [email protected]), CBA members will provide free legal advice to individuals and businesses in need of guidance about insurance claims for property damage after a storm or other disaster. The initial contact will go to CBA staff in New Britain, who will fill out an intake form. Staff will then forward the intake form to the next lawyer on the list of participating volunteers.

Call during regular business hours, and emails should use the following subject line: CBA Disaster Insurance. The program has been developed cooperatively with representatives of FEMA, the CT Insurance Department, and the CT Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection.
