(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
 I am REAL good at estimating. Can look at 10 claims by lunch using my system. Am willing to work two weeks and if you dont make more money than you ever have, my work is free except expenses.

14 Replies and 4682 Views Red Flags / Uncooperative Insureds  4682  14 Started by  greenmachine Sandy was my first flood event, and what an event it has been! I have an insured whose behavior has been questionable, to put it mildly.  Sandy was his fourth loss that I am aware of.   The PA, who also worked the insured's Irene claim, sent me an extraordinarily over-inflated estimate that included a large amount of items  that were paid for after Irene, but not replaced.  Of course, I excluded those items from my own estimate, even though they didn't volunteer ...

5 Replies and 3749 Views New site ripping content from CADO    3749  5 Started by  AcceleratedAdjuster Site is www.stormadjuster.com I love free advertising, and since I have an ad here, it is there, along with every other ad on CADO, and that is all the site really consists of. That said, if someone created a site and used only info from my site, I would probably want someone to tell me so that I could decide how to handle it. So, you have been advised.

23 Replies and 6515 Views Portable Adjuster's Field Desk for Sale  6515  23 Started by  Leland
(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
This desk is designed for an adjuster between 5'5 and 6'2. Quick, intuitive setup- no more fumbling around with wrenches or dangerous telescopic legs. Made from 100 recycled materials, so you can work knowing you are helping the environment. Experienced adjusters will recognize the desktop is made of water resistant material. Adjuster seat is priced separately. Sorry for putting an ad in the discussion forum, I just don't have any money left after all the motel bills etc.

18 Replies and 3789 Views Search and Rescue Damage  3789  18 Started by  Medulus When handling a fire, it is my experience that insurance carriers generally consider damage done to a structure by the firefighters to be part of the fire loss.  My question is similar, but much more complex.  I would be especially interested in hearing from those who have encountered scenarios like the one I am about to describe while working on Hurricanes Katrina or Sandy.  This is a hypothetical, though I have no doubt that there are many actual claims out there that would fit ...

I have recently gotten my all lines license and looking to get into the business.  My parents drive the mobile offices and my brother has worked a few of the big storms, which is what got me interested in starting myself.   Being that I have no prior experience I was  planning on applying for Allstate or State Farm as I meet all qualifications and like the idea of training, perks and certificates this avenue can bring, however, I have recently learned about RIDE ...

10 Replies and 3475 Views Adjusters copyrighting work  3475  10 Started by  stormy56 Situation: Some adjusters believe that copyrighting their work will ensure payment from the vendor (adjusting firm). Problem: Copyrighting your work discloses confidential claim information to the public.  Yes, the author/adjuster can claim copyright protection if they are the one who physically creates the work. But in the copyright process, you are disclosing information that the Insured and Carrier likely does not want publically disclosed: private photographs of their house; comments ...

12 Replies and 3921 Views Why are Flood Claims so different  3921  12 Started by  paulvon Let me start by saying that I know you have a hard job and I understand that. I am trying to understand why flood claims that have the same damage are treated so different. A row of five town houses are hit by 8 feet of water by Sandy.  The ceiling on the first floor is 8' 3' so it was missed.  The lowest level is slab on grade, it is garage and entrance. Two people who had the same flood coverage structure only are provided with documents showing damage of 6k at one place and 9k at...

35 Replies and 8306 Views NFIP as the underlying  8306  35 Started by  HuskerCat
(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
This question is for you that handle flood losses.  I'm now in the boat of handling a couple of 'excess flood' coverage claims.  Having never handled an NFIP loss, I'm not 100 on what may or not be covered.  To explain further, this is a commercial loss.  I've been able to find the personal lines flood coverage form, but not the commercial. And, as an indy inside examiner, you come here or there for the expert answers (um, C Deaton, maybe (see if he's still up, no it's not ...

8 Replies and 4332 Views Adjuster Rights....  4332  8 Started by  AdhusterForAll Hello fellow adjusters, I have been adjusting for over 25 years and have seen a increase in workload without any increase in compensation. Not to mention the complete disregard for you as a person and adjuster. Your safety is being completely disregarded and it's all about profit to the claims company and carriers you are working for. I feel it is time to set some things straight in our industry and stop being taken advantage of by standing together. If you have been in this business for ...

(Topic has multiple pages1 2 3 ... 4 )
So, here we are Sandy is here.  It is really funny how changing jobs from commission to salary changes the perception. When I was a salaried road warrior, I used to beam with joy while seeing those clowns on Weather Channel acting like it's the end of the world. Now, I am a salaried guy working for a large IA firm and I am frowning at the same TV clowns. And out of all possible places, I am  a staff guy in New York.  So, what is the real damages are going to be it is hard to say. ...
