Insurance Claim Help
Profits of the Insurance Companies have been rising steadily over past few years, despite major natural disasters. Reason for this is simple - Insurance Companies are more and more focusing on their bottom line and shareholder profits. What does this mean to you, the Policyholder? One thing only: If you want to receive a fair settlement you will need to be prepared, informed and on the same leveled playing field as your Insurance Company.
The best advice for anyone filing a claim for their property damage is don't rush and make sure you document everything. Inform your insurance company of the loss immediately, take lots of pictures, and save receipts. Don't sign anything saying that you've received full and final settlement from insurance company in exchange for speedy check. Often you are not aware of the full extent of damages immediately following the loss. Don't let contractor negotiate with your insurance company. First of all in most states it is illegal for anyone except the policyholder, lawyer or licensed public adjuster to negotiate insurance claim settlements; second, while contractors will probably have an accurate assessment for the portion of the loss they are repairing, they more than likely can overlook many other aspects of your settlement (like loss of use, content damage, content manipulation, etc.).
