Get Help Requesting A Sandy Claim Review

If you filed a flood insurance claim after Superstorm Sandy and you were not satisfied with the amount of money you received from your insurance company, you can request a review of your claim through FEMA.

The Federal Emergency Management Administration just agreed to extend by 30 days the deadline to apply to have a National Flood Insurance claim re-examined.

The Ocean County Long Term Recovery group has volunteers available to help you through the process at a clinic Thursday -- today -- in Stafford Township.

The assistance is free.

The Ocean County Long Term Recovery group says community advocates will provide one-on-one assistance and lawyers and insurance experts will be present, but they ask that you make an appointment.

The clinic is set for 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. at St. Mary’s of the Pines, 100 Bishop Way, Manahawkin, NJ 08050. Appointments are recommended and can be made by calling 732-569-3484, ext. 24.

Walk-ins are welcome on a first-come first-served basis.
