  • Investigate insurance claims in a variety of settings, including retail establishments, office buildings, residences, condominiums, apartments, hotels, corporate facilities, governmental facilities, schools, clinics, or hospitals, and assess loss or damage resulting from various events.
  • Conduct thorough interviews or other methods to obtain necessary information from the claimant and experts, such as architects, engineers, builders, construction workers, police officers, health care practitioners, accountants, and others, to fully and accurately assess the extent of the loss.
  • Apply a thorough understanding of insurance policies and policy interpretation to properly conduct an investigation, establish appropriate loss estimates based on all relevant information and findings, provide coverage recommendations, and draft coverage letters, if requested by the client.
  • Work cooperatively with expert witnesses, attorneys, underwriting department staff, investigators, vendors, and carriers' examiners as needed to conduct investigations, confirm findings, and support evaluations.
  • Ensure the accuracy of the information collected and reported and guard against fraudulent claims, based on critical issues identified and accurate conclusions drawn.
  • Follow all applicable policies, procedures, and practices, and incorporate sound judgment in formulating recommendations and completing evaluations and reports.
  • Effectively use software systems, such as Xactimate, as necessary to produce accurate estimates.
  • Prepare accurate, clear, thorough, and concise reports and letters to insurance carriers, providing appropriate conclusions and recommendations.
  • Arrange contractors' estimates, and other specialists' appointments, as necessary, and attend trials, arbitration, ADR, and face-to-face negotiations, as required.
  • May be called upon to handle more complex claims involving various situations, including contractor liability, products liability, and construction defects, with the appropriate level of guidance.
  • Ability to identify claims whose complexity warrants escalation to a more senior level adjuster.
  • Identify and address third-party liability and tender opportunities through investigation and/or contract interpretation.
  • Maintain accurate, thorough field notes, journal entries, and time and expense records, and submit reimbursement reports in keeping with organization and client policies, procedures, and practices, and within accepted industry standards.
