Catastrophic Claims

You hope that a hurricane, wildfire or other catastrophic weather event won't happen to you.

But if it does, we want to help you prepare, stay safe and recover, so that your life gets back to normal as quickly as possible.

Our Claims representatives will walk you through the claims reporting process and our specially trained catastrophe team is always ready to travel into impacted areas to ensure claims are handled quickly and efficiently.

The Claims Process

It’s important that you contact us as soon as possible after you sustain damage. Here are some key steps in the claims reporting process:

• File a claim by phone or online. A Kemper Catastrophe Claims Representative will contact you to set up an inspection of the damage, typically within a few days.


• Take photos and/or video of the damage. This will help your adjuster during the claim settlement process.


• Provide your adjuster with as much detail as possible about your property and belongings as they were before the weather event, sharing an inventory if you have one.


• Check claim status. You can monitor the status of your claim by calling 866.536.7376.
