Hail Claim Playbook
Hail does five-figure damage and hands you a claim you have never filed before, against people who handle them all day. This site levels that, with free guides and one printable playbook.
I am Dan Swenson, a data nerd who is also a Minnesota workers' compensation attorney and a city council member. I build these sites as a hobby to make public records, government rules, and license registries easy to find and use. The tools are free. The network pays for itself through disclosed referral links and a few optional paid guides.
More about why I build these
Hail Claim Playbook is an independent educational publication written by a Minnesota attorney. It is not an insurance company, not a public adjuster, not a law firm acting for you, and not a contractor. Nothing on this site is legal advice or claim-specific assistance: we never review individual claims, contact insurers, or negotiate on anyone's behalf, and reading this site does not create an attorney-client relationship.
General claim concepts described here (actual cash value, replacement cost, appraisal, the duty to mitigate) appear in standard homeowner policy forms and state insurance regulations. Your policy controls; the playbook shows you where to look in it.
How this site makes money: a paid PDF playbook, disclosed Amazon Associates links on supply checklists, and disclosed partner links. No contractor or insurer pays to be recommended, and editorial pages are never sold. Attorney advertising. Privacy policy.
