How We Resolve Claims
-
First, we retain an independent adjuster to prepare an estimate.
-
Then we will present that competing estimate to the insurance company.
-
We negotiate with the adjuster and if the insurance company continues to wrongfully deny coverage, we may file a lawsuit.
-
Sometimes it is necessary to retain an engineer to act as an expert witness and testify as to causation.
