Adjusters International Pacific Northwest Testimonials

...your lead adjuster took command of our claim and negotiations with our insurance carrier and has returned more than three times what the initial claim value appeared to be. As a result of all your fine efforts, we have been able to rebuild a new facility, larger than the one we lost; installed a state of the art packing line; and have improved our site facility all for the amount of the settlement. We initially looked at your fee as a cost of doing business.

I would like to express my personal appreciation and also the appreciation of Lockheed management in general for the excellent job you and your associates did in working up our earthquake claim, particularly the business interruption portion. It is unfortunate that we had to go to the extreme of filing suit against the carrier(s) to recover our loss due to the adamant refusal on the part of one of the carriers to recognize that we had any business interruption loss at all. It is obvious, however, that your basis of presenting the business interruption claim, backed up by your understanding of the policy wording and intent, your understanding of Lockheed's financial situation at the time of the earthquake, and, of course, your professional expertise went a long way in prompting the early settlement of the claim.

All of the representatives of your organization were both knowledgeable and professional. I believe that without your services Arden Hills would have received less than seventy five percent of the collected claim, even though it was entirely justifiable. What I did not realize prior to this experience was the degree to which the insurance company would use their knowledge advantage to keep the claim to a minimum. In addition, the volume and scope of the information that was demanded to justify the claim put us in a position that could be likened to an IRS audit. It would have been impossible for me to run my business and do battle with the insurance company without the services of The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International.

…Issues of financial magnitude as well as minor details were dealt with equal attention and concern. In addition to our 7200 sq foot home and all of its contents, we lost an irreplaceable art collection. …He supervised a minimum of half dozen Allstate representatives, a personal inventory specialist, an art and antiques specialist, and a building specialist who recreated our home inch by inch on paper, a loss of use adjuster who agreed to numerous weekend and holidays stays, and a total of three separate insurance companies involved in our loss. …Even though we have been entitled to all of this compensation, insurance paperwork, complicated language and fine print exclusions would have prevented us as novices from acquiring a fair and positive result.

You were there from day one and that was reassuring. You were very thorough with your investigation and working up our loss. Without your services we never would have been able to make the settlement as quickly and smoothly as it went. It was a relief for us to know that you were handling it and we never had to really become bogged down with the settlement. Thanks to you we were able to put our energy into reconstruction and running our business.

In those first days, we felt comfortable that the expertise within our congregation along with the assurances from our insurance company’s adjuster were all that was needed to put the destruction behind us and allow us to rebuild. I believe this was the single biggest mistake we made in the process of our crises. Moving through the process, we became mired in a protracted disappointing, difficult negotiation with our insurance company. When The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International got involved, the insurance company’s offer was a little over two million dollars. When all was said and done, our negotiated settlement was just short of three and a half million dollars, over 60% increase! Drew and The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International earned every penny they charged. If I were to go back in time or had another claim of any kind the first call after 911 would be to The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International. They are worth it. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

We are now preparing final presentation drawings on our home, which was destroyed in the Laguna Beach fire on October 27, 1995. Without your work and negotiations with the insurance company, we would never have recovered the amount that we did from the loss. This will allow us to rebuild our house and replace a good portion of our other losses that we know we would not have been able to without your diligence in working with our insurance company.
