In response to the needs of those affected by the Marshall Fire, the Colorado Division of Insurance has posted a list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Additional Living Expenses (ALE) coverage that is part of many homeowners and renters insurance policies. Also called "Coverage D – Additional Living Expense (or Loss of Use)," the purpose of ALE is to help you if your home is a total loss or rendered uninhabitable due to damage.
These questions were developed based on the questions the Division received during its January 4 town hall and the questions Division staff have received at the Disaster Assistance Center.
