Morgantown Water Diversion Damage Lawyer
Serving Owners of Flooded & Damaged Property Throughout WV
Your Trusted Flood Lawyer
If your property has been flooded or otherwise damaged as a result of purposeful, unnatural change in the movement of water flow, Angotti & Straface Attorneys at Law L.C. in Morgantown protects your rights and works to ensure that you receive compensation for damages incurred at the hands of another individual or entity. Any time a change is made to a property, the manner in which water flows across that property and surrounding properties will be altered. In some cases, water is prevented from properly draining. Water may also become displaced and caused to flow in an unusually high amount or in an unexpected way onto your property resulting in significant destruction to your buildings or land. It is forbidden to improperly divert the natural flow of water in a manner which damages the property of another. Water may not be directed from storm drains, ditches, pipes, ponds, gutters, storage tanks, and other flood control infrastructure by any means.
