Florida’s Citizens Insurance Solicits Claims Adjustment Firms In Preparation For Hurricane Season

Friday, August 4th, 2017 Catastrophe Property Risk Management

Citizens Property Insurance Corp. has found another 315 claims adjusters to deploy after the next major hurricane — hopefully reducing long waits for customers who will be eager to get paid and start making repairs. Ten independent claims adjustment firms responded to Citizens’ latest solicitation with commitments to provide about 30 adjusters each. On Wednesday, an internal evaluation team recommended the company’s Board of Governors approve contracts with the 10 firms. The company hopes to have the adjusters available for post-storm work before the peak of hurricane season in September, Citizens spokesman Michael Peltier said.
