Insurance Claim Delays Deliver Massive Profits To Industry By Shorting Customers
By Mollie Reilly and Max J. Rosenthal

Insurance Companies Underpay

A Colorado Auto Accident Attorney, _____________  "people get on average 300% more when represented by an attorney."

Clearly Insurance Companies UNDERPAY!

It's not just auto claims that need representation, property owners do too!

Insurance Adjusters are Not on your side

Insurance Adjusters work for the Insurance Company, NOT YOU. 
The state Colorado doesn't bother to license adjusters representing the
 insurance companies!
Most are not competent. Most adjusters are not well trained, especially residential adjusters. We have found that many are not able to determine the cause of the damage unless it is so obvious you could too. This incompetency often results in missed damages, denied claims, estimates written to benefit the insurance company and underpay you.
Remember, adjusters want to please their boss not you.

What is a Public Adjuster?

​How do Public Adjusters get paid?​ 

Only the Public Adjuster works for the insured. Public Adjusters are the ONLY adjusters in Colorado that are Licensed!
The Insurance agent by Colorado law is working for the insurance company. It may seem like they are on your side but most don't explain the coverages, don't warn you about degrees of risk, don't always understand the coverage themselves. CAI has had to correct insurance agents giving advice to their insured's. 
The insurance adjuster is not there to be fair. They are not there to be your friend, though they will try to convince you they are. They are there to pay you the least amount possible for your claim. 
Essentially you are on an Island by yourself. 
  • When you bought your house it is likely you had an real estate agent that represented you and the person selling had an agent represent them. 
  • Unfortunately for insureds, insurance doesn't work that way. 
Most insured's don't know that they have been underpaid. Most insured's don't consider a public adjuster until their situation is dire. 
  • When their claim is denied
  • When their claim is partially denied
  • When the underpayment is so vast they cannot restore their property
  • When they live out of town or have a schedule that makes it impossible for them to work through their claim. 
Colorado has set a maximum rate of 10%. 
Yes, the insured pays this fee. 
The law is such that the insurance company can delay, underpay, and force an insured to either hire an attorney or a Public Adjuster and then not be responsible to pay the extra expense. 
Colorado and Colorado laws are clearly written to the advantage of the billion dollar insurance companies that pay tremendous sums to state campaigns so that they can influence these laws and lawmakers. 
Hiring just any public adjuster may not make sense.
  • Hiring a great public adjuster will often result in a significantly increased settlement.
  • When a claim is denied, paying 10% of what a public adjuster gets the insured seems like an obvious decision. Pay 1005 yourself or a public adjuster 10%.
  • When a claim is significantly underpaid the same is true. Pay the difference out of your own pocket or pay an public adjuster to get all or part of that difference. 
  • When you are outmatched or when you don't have the time or are not in town, hiring a public adjuster can make a lot of sense. 
  • When your time is more valuable than the fee
  • When you want your best possible outcome without hiring an attorney
Undoubtedly, hiring a public adjuster is an expense. However it is our opinion that it's an expense well worth paying.

Experience w/ insurance companies.

Philip was not just an adjuster. Frankly adjusters are a dime a dozen. Philip was trained by the nations TOP ADJUSTERS and considered to be at the top of the craft. Insurance companies would hire Philip to resolve claim issues for claims that were headed to court and Philip was able to resolve them.

Philip was asked to train adjusters and consulted with insurance companies on estimating software, aerial imaging, and was hired by one insurance company that was purchased by a bigger insurance company to help then convert from IntegraClaims to Xactimate.
