A Lake Co. Indiana couple was locked in a months-long battle with State Farm insurance over damage from a hail storm the company claimed didn't happen.A couple in Lake County, Indiana, was locked in a months-long battle with State Farm insurance over roof damage. They said the damage came from a hail storm in the spring, but the couple said the insurance company insisted the storm never happened.
"There was hail, and it was one inch sized hail," Alan Johnsen said. "It looked like it had been a half inch to an inch snow storm.""A lot of hail. Pea sized to dime size. But there were some pennies and quarters reported," he said."I thought that we should get it checked and make sure it's not problems or anything," Alan said.
According to the National Weather Service, there were several reports of hail in Northwest Indiana on March 26, including 1 inch size hail in St. John. Alan Johnsen said within a couple days of the I-Team reaching out to State Farm, they were told a new adjuster was going to come out. They said he examined the roof and agreed to cover the cost. They said he wrote them a check on the spot for $17,908.67.
