Lost Cause? Examining The Future Of Loss Adjusting

More often than not, a loss adjuster is one of the first people a claimant will meet following a highly traumatic and emotional experience. Whether that’s a house fire, flood, or where they’re being sued for personal injury, it’s the loss adjuster’s job to gather evidence, expert opinions and witness statements, before finally negotiating settlement of the insurance claim.

It’s a crucial part of the claims process.
