Recouping Legal Fees in Arizona
Hi guys,
An Airbnb guest living the floor above my Airbnb guest caused a flood in their condo, which caused extensive damages to my condo.
I had to repair my unit, costing well over 20K. I had primary owner's insurance, but since doing Airbnb and not switching over to renter's insurance, they denied my claim unfortunately.
My question: If I were to sue the homeowner above me, can I recoup legal fees? A lawyer that was recommended by a friend said once I win, I can only recoup ~20% of the claim, which makes me want to reconsider a new lawyer.
This is a condo in state of Arizona.
Thank you
