Adjusters International Testimonials

I have handled many fire claims myself, but due to the size and complexity of this loss, we would never have realized the full business interruption, personal property, and building recoveries without your assistance. Also, we realize that our recovery would have been even better if we had enlisted your assistance immediately after the fire and before our management began discussions with our insurance company.

Immediately you began a thorough and comprehensive analysis of our insurance policies and, as well, the organization of emergency and restoration crews. Upon the arrival of the insurance company's adjuster, your precise and detailed understanding of our policy smoothed the insurance company's initial misunderstanding of our coverage. Early the next day your inventory crew began a detailed listing of all damages of real property, equipment, furniture and fixtures, stock, and work in process. You and your certified public accountant began researching our books and records after sufficient discussion with our officers to thoroughly understand our operations. You then structured an audit system that allowed the insurance company to pay equitably against extra expenses and loss of income. Your experience and understanding enabled you to compute our stock loss to extract every advantage possible from our policy. The insurance perspective you chose garnered an additional recovery no one ever expected from our policy! This unexpected recovery, along with the advance payments you arranged immediately after the flood, allowed Sawyer of Napa to regain momentum and continue operations in what is proving to be one of our best years.

You leveled the playing field and made sure that we were represented professionally in every aspect of our losses. Your thorough cataloging and evaluation of our damaged personal property and your precise review of our building damage was instrumental in reaching a fair settlement. I spent numerous hours with your in-house forensic accountants who allowed us to recover in a fashion that never would have been achieved had we not retained your firm.

The insurance company tried to penalize us for doing everything in our power to mitigate our damages. The Vericlaim Adjuster was pleasant at first, but was very schooled and experienced in doing his job as he is tasked to do: to minimize the claim throughout the process…Fortunately, your firm succeeded on negotiating a fair and reasonable settlement with experience and tools that we do not have at our disposal…We appreciate the policy knowledge, detailed analysis and information that you provided us with which allowed us to make important business decisions relating to which path we wanted to take with our claim. We certainly did not realize the finesse, skill, and strategy necessary in the claims process to lead to such a successful resolution…Most importantly, it does come down to dollars in the end…You were able to successfully negotiate a settlement that was hundreds of thousands of dollars more than the insurance company initially offered.

We are not only satisfied with the results of having you and your company's expertise, but feel that it was an absolute necessity to understand and deal with the wealth of complexities that arose, especially in business interruption.

It was quickly apparent that the insurance company was not interested in what was best of us. They were only interested in paying as little as possible. We are confident that without you we would not have recovered as much as we did. You were able to identify the deficiencies in the insurance company’s building estimate which resulted in an additional payment of almost twice the proposed amount. Your expert negotiating abilities coupled with your attention to detail and persistent follow up assured the claim would be settled for a fair amount. You left no stone unturned.

…the staff of Adjusters International had a well planned strategy which resulted in a highly organized claim. This was no small feat when one considers that there were over 300 unit owners to contend with along with a complex asbestos problem. Their professionalism and rapport with the insurance company enabled settlement of our claim in three months, much sooner than we had ever hoped. Their attention to detail, knowledge of the insurance policy, and negotiation skills brought us an ultimate settlement which was nearly $2 million more than we originally expected.

Not only did you realize all the work in a shorter period of time than expected, but also we received the benefit of an adequate compensation.
