Why Pass Over Freedom? How to Submit a Property Insurance Claim

The state of Florida has a sizable enough Jewish population – at least in the larger cities – that you can tell when Passover, known as the Festival of Freedom, is coming: The matzah, Manischewitz wine, and other traditional holiday foods are prominently displayed in grocery store entrances. Passover lasts a week, but aside from matzah, most of the other foods are meant for the first two nights, when families, friends, and communities sit down to a festive seder meal to retell the Exodus story. While the Exodus took place in the desert, the Seder usually take place indoors – in homes, synagogues, community centers, and hotels.

Nowadays, it takes a week or two (if not more) to prepare homes, synagogues, community centers, and hotels for Passover. All products with leaven are forbidden for the week, so the pressure’s on to rid all view able stored leaven, and to cook leaven-free for the masses attending the seders. These homes, synagogues, community centers, and hotels are available for Passover because they already operate on a routine day-to-day basis, including cleaning, maintenance and security. All this is to say that people can join in on communal gatherings because the property’s infrastructure is in place. Otherwise, where would you hold a seder? Return to the desert? It’s just not practical.

It goes without saying that these properties are insured just like any home or commercial venture. And yet, as Murphy’s Law would have it, in the midst of all of the Passover preparations, every now and again there will be some need to file an insurance claim. The water pipe leading to the kitchen? It burst. The neighbor’s children decide to test out how fire is made, and whoops – the fire crept into your garden, reaching your porch before you could put it out. Or worse, a hurricane hits. You might be in the middle of Passover preparations, and on top of it all, you now need to make an insurance claim.
