MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Following
Hurricane Irma in September 2017, tens of thousands of structures
throughout Florida were left damaged and exposed. Since then, The Falcon
Group, a New Jersey based engineering and architectural firm with
locations in Miami and West Palm Beach, has been working tirelessly with
property owners, managers, insurance adjusters and attorneys to assess
Hurricane Irma damages, conduct inspections, provide reports and expert
testimony to ensure buildings can be made safe and habitable again, and
assist its clients in obtaining the means to do so.
“The damages caused by Hurricane Irma resulted in a building envelope that was no longer able to keep water from entering the building, leaving it severely damaged and exposed to future storms,” said William Pyznar, P.E., Principal at The Falcon Group.
In late May 2019, The Falcon Group provided expert testimony during a jury trial that lasted over a week. On conclusion of The Falcon Group’s testimony in June 2019, the jury awarded the St. Louis Condominium Association over $3.5 million to restore the building envelope. “We are glad that our investigations, reporting, and testimony were able to help the residents of the St. Louis Condominium Association win a substantial amount of money to assist them in making the proper repairs to their building,” states Pyznar.

Following an initial denial of the insurance claim, the law firm of Siegfried Rivera filed a lawsuit on behalf of the St. Louis Condominium Association.“The damages caused by Hurricane Irma resulted in a building envelope that was no longer able to keep water from entering the building, leaving it severely damaged and exposed to future storms”Tweet this
