Our in-depth analysis of the policy, and expert guidance, built upon over 80+ years of experience in the insurance claims industry, is invaluable to your full recovery.
Key Considerations for Your Insurance Claim Process
- What is my broker's/agent’s role?
- Following a property damage loss, what are the duties and responsibilities of the policyholder?
- Does the adjuster work for us or the insurance company?
- Do the independent building consultants brought in by the insurance company work for the policyholder or for the insurance company?
- How quickly can we start rebuilding?
- Do you have a coinsurance provision in your policy, and how does that impact your recovery?
- How does the damage affect volunteers?
- How does the damage affect donations?
- What are the options when it comes to continuing services at some other location?
- How are items of religious and/or historical significance covered under our insurance policy?
- Are we able to quantify long-term effects of less effective community outreach?
- Can we compensate employees or volunteers who help with cleaning or restoration?
- How does our policy address increased costs due to new codes? If our insurance coverage is limited, what can we do about it?
- Will the insurance company pay for a construction manager?
- Can we relocate to a temporary facility? Will the policy cover any costs related to this?
- How can the way we present our claim affect our recovery?
