Learn how to file property damage claims in Bradenton Beach after two hurricanes

If the stress of preparing for two hurricanes in just two weeks was not enough, now comes the aftermath for millions of displaced Floridians.

Heavy rains and winds from Hurricanes Helene and Milton have left Florida residents with hordes of property damages, and many are in the dark about how to file property insurance claims.

Florida CFO Jimmy Patronis announced that the Florida Department of Financial Services Division of Consumer Services will host an insurance village in Bradenton Beach from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 14, located at 101 12th Street West Bradenton, Florida 34205.
