0 Replies and 4048 Views Auto Flood Template and Scope Sheet for Adjusters  4048  0 Started by  IAPATH I just wanted to provide a template for auto flood claims due to Harvey. This template has the vehicle information, total loss options, and flood levels all on a one-page scope sheet. Use this to make it easy to document your claims and remember what to write on that particular car. You can download it at the link below. IA Path Flood Template   If you have any suggestions on revision don&39;t hesitate to email me, ChrisIAPath.com. I&39;m want to help fellow adjusters.

3 Replies and 4653 Views Daily Claims  4653  3 Started by  JimGary Since in my opinion, I think the year may be over, I went to digging up some daily work. Started getting some pretty good assignments. Got a response from a vendor to an inquiry about handling some claims. This is a good lesson for those who will work anyone just for the experience. This vendor offered $50 a file, not good but not a deal breaker as long as I have others at a good rate. I recd the contract, the vendor does not pay if they do not get payed by the carrier.&160; The adjuster is out...

21 Replies and 10710 Views Too Many Adjusters???  10710  21 Started by  JimGary
(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
There have been numerous posts regarding the number of adjusters entering the property field. Believe or not, there seems to be a shortage of experienced auto adjusters. For those property guys with auto experience sitting on the sidelines, you might let your vendor know of your experience and get deployed on an auto assignment. Not as long or profitable as a property assignment, but pays the bills. Just a thought. JWG
