Independent insurance adjusters, appraisers, and consultants handle claims intake, policy verification, field inspections, damage estimates, settlement calculations and documentation for carriers and policyholders. For a firm that receives loss notices, verifies coverage, schedules inspections, produces estimates and negotiates settlements, the specialists turn notices into verified claims, claims into inspection schedules and supplier dispatches, estimates into reviewed settlement packages, and track all required forms, photos, and compliance paperwork the owner must approve before filing.
