If the premises are the insured premises there should be coverage for the loss. Did your boyfriend have a will? Was his estate probated? Were you the beneficiary of the estate? Were you the executor of his estate? How did the property get into your name? By deed from the estate? These are all questions that need to be answered in order to really know. Plus, the insurance policy language needs to be studied. I think there is a meritorious claim here somewhere but would need to know the answers to these questions, and others, to be certain what action to take.
