I would recommend that you consult an attorney licensed in your state, preferably one who is a local attorney. Stay away from the attorneys who have advertised about the class actions against the various insurance companies.
For a referral, you might call your county or state bar association.
Don't handle this on your own. You may have some recourse, but only an attorney in your state can advise you on those options after carefully evaluating your situation.

So go back to your insurance agency and tell them you think they are wrong. Keep filing your claim over and over. Of course they will say no to any one they think will take no for an answer.
Get more info, read through your policy, be prepared to counter whatever argument they give. If you are in the right, they will cave. All insurance agencies try not to pay. It's what makes them money. Just keep pushing. If they are truly wrong, then hire a lawyer and get your money. Most lawyers will at least listen to you and review your case for free to see if it's worth their time and effort.

As the others have suggested - consult an attorney. There may be an appeals process through your insurance, and then there is the court system, but an attorney may be able to help you traverse the appeals process and avoid lengthy (and costly) litigation.
