Insurance Claim Consulting
An insurance claim for property damage is initiated by a property owner to request coverage from the insurance provider for property damage, which could be due to wind, flood, fire, soil movement, adjacent construction, vibration or another hazard.
Our experts’ extensive knowledge of nature of each hazard and years of experience in understating the effects of each hazard to different types of structures and performance of the unique structure under a specific hazard are essential to assist the insurance professionals, such as independent adjustors and public adjustors, to decide whether the property damage is covered under the policy and determine the extent of coverage.
