This has been such a fun year. I said goodbye to a few business partners, but I am on track for my best year ever! Some people get hung up on which side of the fence they're on, but I refuse to do that! If I have anything to do with your claim, regardless of whether my assignment comes from the insurance carrier, a contractor, a business owner, or a homeowner.......you will be taken care of.

I am delighted to report another favorable property damage appraisal award for a client in Lyndon, IL. The insurance adjuster initially estimated $493.00, and I secured an award of $27,597.78. Help is here. Thank you to my clients for putting your trust in me.

I have received a few inquiries lately about writing appraisals for insurance carriers so want to be fully transparent. I do write appraisals for insurance carriers, homeowners, AND business owners. It might appear that I only work for homeowners or business owners but that's because insurance companies don't give testimonials or referrals. I remember working for an insurance carrier and the last thing that I wanted to do after delegating responsibilities to a claims partner was filling out a customer service survey or writing a reference/testimonial. By accepting appraisal assignments from both sides, I gain valuable perspective and maintain an objectivity that keeps me impartial throughout the appraisal process. I often see appraisers that are not objective and it taints the entire dispute resolution process. I have and will continue to exercise my right to recuse myself from an assignment if I sense that my objectivity is in jeopardy. As always, thank you to my current and future clients!

These folks were close to losing their home and garage when a tornado danced around their yard in Linton, Indiana. Glad to help them get back to pre-loss condition.

Happy to help Denise through the Property Damage Appraisal process. After her insurance carrier and the opposing appraiser inspected her home 3 times and denied her siding replacement, we took it to an Umpire and received a fair and favorable award.
