Fire accidents in American homes can result in severe personal injuries and even death. Although some fires are caused intentionally, most occur by complete accident. Homeowners, for example, may forget to turn off hot kitchen appliances, or may accidently forget to blow out a candle. These small mishaps can lead to devastating fires. Replacing lost personal items can be overwhelming, but coping with the loss of a loved one is even more tragic.
Fortunately, the fire that recently destroyed an Ohio couple’s mansion in Hamilton County did not steal any lives. No one was injured by the 30-foot high flames that engulfed the 22-room home. According to initial reports, 90% of the home was lost to the fire. Jeffrey and Maria Decker, the homeowners, were devastated to learn all they had lost. To make matters worse, their insurance company refused to honor their insurance claim.
The home, and the five acres of property it sat on, was worth more than $4 million according to the Hamilton County auditor’s website. After the couple’s insurance company denied their insurance claim, they filed a lawsuit demanding answers and money damages. The Ohio couple is suing the insurance company for $60 million under a theory of breach of contract.
