Adjusters International Testimonials

Even though the insurance carrier’s representative recommended against hiring an independent adjuster we followed the advice of our property manager, Real Estate Connections, and contracted with your firm. That was the right thing to do considering our lack of familiarity with this situation...From the first day when you stopped Paul Davis Co. from power washing the walls your assistance has been invaluable. Their unauthorized action could have exposed us to fines since there is lead paint on the walls. Of course, your major contribution has been the ongoing negotiation with the insurance company and contractors to bring us to where we are today. And there is no question your efforts resulted in a payment and scope far in excess of what we would have received without your participation.

I wanted to extend my appreciation, and that of Mrs. Eunice Kennedy Shriver, for your assistance in her recent fire loss insurance claim…Looking back on it, I can see that the first few weeks after a fire presents a stream of issues and decisions that no one should face without someone of your talents and expertise at their side. The subsequent work you performed in bringing in the engineers, contractors and appraisers required to begin processing the claim with the insurer, Chubb, was equally invaluable and saved me countless hours. Your initial statement that a speedy claims process was the only way you would pursue the job and your later recommendation to reject Chubb's original settlement offers…further demonstrated your expertise. I am also happy to say that it also yielded additional insurance proceeds that would not have been obtained if we had attempted to do this work on our own or with another firm. To sum up, your knowledge of Chubb's procedures and how best to approach them was invaluable.

In the end, you were able to double the offer Farmers made and I got all of the funds I needed to get my property looking great again. There is no way I could have done this on my own.

As you know, I started negotiating with their adjuster on my own after the loss occurred. That was perhaps the worst business decision I have ever made. I finally realized that I needed representation by someone who was an expert in insurance losses. By the time I engaged your services MSI had already had their own consulting engineer look at the building and had recommended a repair plan that was totally unacceptable. It took Adjusters International to undo that plan and negotiate the settlement to which we agreed. Based upon the offer to settle made by MSI before Adjusters International intervened and the one we finally accepted, the final settlement was nearly three times the original offer. Or to put it another way, I received an additional sum of money that was twelve times more than the fees Adjusters International charged me. That was a good investment!

You and your team have provided invaluable assistance in the College's recovery efforts in response to Tropical Storm Allison in 2001. Your knowledge of the often complex FEMA process, coupled with your insurance industry experience, have been of enormous benefit to us.

Your professionalism and understanding made such a long process bearable. Also, on a personal level, you were very understanding and I enjoyed getting to know you.

As you probably remember, we initially decided that we could handle the losses on the two houses by ourselves. By January it became apparent that all our efforts and time consumption with Prudential were just adding another element of frustration to our lives. It was initially hard for us to admit we needed help but, in retrospect, we could have saved ourselves two months of frustration by obtaining your services earlier…Although we were skeptical that anyone could get Prudential to be reasonable and fair, the final settlement amount you obtained says it all.

Needless to say, your professionalism, as well as your team's, was apparent throughout your handling of the settlement and we believe as a result of it we were able to maximize the coverage.
