The Department can be contacted at 800-433-3966 or 334-269-3550 for general insurance-related questions. If you are able to get online, the Department’s web site is located at http://www.aldoi.gov/. Under the “Hurricane Claims Info,” there is a list of dozens of insurance companies’ claims hotlines.

For those who desire to contact their home state’s Insurance Departments, here are the numbers.

 Louisiana Department of Insurance  225-342-5900
