Good luck. We’ve had problems with the city before, they so hard to get a hold of. Keep making claims through the 311 they tend to respond to that. Insurance is a nightmare, we had a ceiling collapse, and they refused to pay. And so did our landlord. We called about 10 lawyers, no responses.

The system is sooo broken. The center for justice stopped returning our calls, we’re out $7k that no one wants to Pay for, and we can’t even find a lawyer to help us.

Don’t give up and keep trying! I wish I had better answers for you, but I don’t :/ I understand your frustration though

I’m so sorry this happened to you. It’s insane that the city can cause massive and unexpected damage to your home and then just take their sweet time compensating you for their damage.

We made several calls to 311 and the lawyer finally got back to us yesterday. Now we have the form that we need to get the check but I can only imagine how long it will take for the check to arrive.
