    What do I do now?? Anyone, please help

    Thank you for your message. Following your advise, I got in touch with our insurance broker at the time to see if we can claim. From what they have said so far, it looks unlikely. Our insurance didn't even cover our legal costs to date, it didn't cover the food that ruined in the freezers...
