Get the Maximum Payout on Your Insurance Claim

When disaster strikes, you expect your insurance company to give you exactly what you are entitled to. But the truth is they will work hard to keep as much money as they can, and have experts that help them to do so. Who can help you get the best deal from your insurance claim?

Insurance Loss Assessors 

If you've ever had to make a claim on insurance, you'll know it can be a lot more complicated, and that you probably received a much lower payout, than you were expecting. We think our insurance companies will be more than happy to give us the maximum we are entitled to - but why would they want to do that? Like all businesses, insurance companies are in it for the money, and they will do their best to give away as little as possible.

What's more, they deal with insurance claims on a daily basis, and employ experts who help them to reduce the amounts they have to pay out. You, on the other hand, probably have very little experience of dealing with insurance claims, and equally little knowledge of exactly how much you are entitled to. Insurance companies exploit this advantage to ensure that, when a claim is made, they pay the bare minimum.

What the claimant needs is help from someone with the same level of experience working on their behalf. This is exactly what an insurance loss assessor does.

The job of an insurance loss adjuster

When a customer makes an insurance claim, the insurance company assigns an insurance loss adjuster to investigate the claim and give their confidential opinion of how much compensation the company should offer the claimant. They will survey any damage being claimed for, interview the claimants, and gather any necessary evidence to support the case. They will also work to ensure that the claim being made is not fraudulent.

An insurance loss adjuster works for the insurance company, and it is in their best interests to ensure the minimum possible payout is made. The claimant often has no one of equivalent skill and experience working on their behalf.

What an Insurance Loss Assessor Does 

This is where an insurance loss assessor can help. When making an insurance claim, the claimant can employ an insurance loss assessor to investigate the claim on their behalf. Insurance loss assessors conduct the same type of research as loss adjusters, but with the claimant's interests in mind rather than the insurance company's. Employing the services of an insurance loss assessor takes the unfair advantage away from the insurance companies and ensures the claimant receives the maximum entitlement.

Unless you work in the insurance business, it's likely you hadn't heard of an insurance loss assessor before reading this article. For some reason, very few people seem to be aware this service exists. But now you do, you'll know who to contact if the worst happens and you need to make an insurance claim.

Ensure you get every penny you're entitled to

Be certain you get the full amount you're entitled to when making an insurance claim, by enlisting the services of an insurance loss assessor. They will fight your corner and make sure that your insurance company don't have it all their way. If disaster strikes, contact an insurance loss assessor as soon as possible so that they can start helping you straight away.

Here's a 'good' horror story:

A client came to me saying, "My insurance company refused to pay for my hurricane damage, and now, to make matters worse, the insurance company has gone OUT OF BUSINESS!"

In Florida, hurricane claims come with large deductibles. Her's was about $7,500, and in this case, the insurance company estimated the damage to be below her deductible, so they declined payment.

Luckily for her, I knew what to do, and recovered just over $52,000 - AFTER the deductible was taken.

You see, in Florida, if an insurance company goes out of business, a state agency takes over and has to pay the claims of the insurance company. Often, it is easier to get the claim paid by the state agency than it is to get paid by the insurance company.

I would be willing to bet there were hundreds, or even THOUSANDS of customers that gave up on their claims as soon as they heard the insurance company went belly-up!

This is why it is so important to HIRE AN EXPERT!

I am an American version of the Insurance Loss Assessor. Here we are called Public Adjusters, but our job is the same -- make sure the insurance companies don't run you over, and ensure you get everything you are entitled to for your claim.

I have so many horror stories, there isn't enough room here. But several are in the book I wrote and had published in 2007. It is called, 'UNCOVERED - What Really Happens After The Storm, Flood, Earthquake or Fire'. You can get it at my website, GoldStarPA.com.
