When you file a claim, your insurance company will introduce you to a claim
representative who will be either an independent or a staff adjuster.
Consider the duties of the representative of the insurer:
| • |
Interpret coverage |
| • |
Generally, they do NOT volunteer anything that increases insurance company liability |
| • |
Generally provide for rebuild contractors NOT cash settlements |
| • |
Negotiate settlements on an insured's claim to protect the interests of their employer |
Recognize Relationship: Policy Holders vs. Insurance Companies
Your Referee: The Cold Print of the Policy
Your Advocate: Brown - O'Haver, Loss Claims Representatives.
You
wouldn't just send your documents to the I.R.S and tell them to tell
you how much you owe; you would, instead, tell them! And, most likely
you would retain an advocate to prepare that return. Don't let the
insurance company tell you how much your loss is, retain an advocate to
represent you.
