How does insurance work?

For high-value burglaries, insurance claims can be complex, requiring detailed inventories and proof of ownership for stolen items. Homeowners typically have contents insurance, but specific high-value items like jewellery or art may need separate, specialised coverage. The process often involves police reports and assessor visits.
