If you filed an insurance claim (in general) and feel your insurer should pay more than they estimated, or wrongfully denied your claim, you aren’t helpless. This guide will walk you through the process to dispute a claim offer or claim denial, and help make sure your settlement is fair.
Discrepancies over the cost of damages or a loss are common between insurance companies and policyholders. Policyholders pay premiums and expect all of their claims to be paid in-full. It is in insurance companies’ best financial interests to pay as little as possible in claims, which directly affect their profit and ultimately affect the cost of premiums. But that doesn’t mean companies automatically try to lowball their policyholders. Both parties often just need to share more information with one another to come to an agreement, or at least an understanding behind a settlement.
Then there is room for disputing. Exactly what you shall do is to contact your insurer or company. But you should review the claim you filed earlier. Consider if there is any way you can improve it. The quality of evidence showing damage or a loss can have a significant impact on the claim settlement. You have to refresh the claims with evidences potentially with materials such as photos, videos, repair estimates and receipts for items; you should organize before reconnecting with your insurer or company. It must be borne in mind that these materials should not have evidenced in the initial claim. Remember that an adjuster from the company calculated the estimate, not your agent or the person you’ll speak to. Be polite, listen to what they have to say and follow any instruction they might give you regarding a claim dispute. It has to be learnt whether the adjuster can reexamine the property damaged or loss of particular assets against which you have made the claims as mistakes happen and it is possible that the adjustor might have succumbed to miscalculations. A company might review it again but that doesn’t mean that settlement offer might change.
As the insurer or company is reluctant to make any amends, you may be forced to resort to certain private appraiser. SoftSettle Support is there to assist you in accepting the role of an appraiser with their expertise in assessing or appraising the loss suffered by you. It is a special service that SoftSettle Support intends to provide to their clients. On the other hand you will be pleased to enjoy the services of SoftSettle Support rather than seeking the assistance of a private appraiser so far as their services demands heavy pounds or fees. The extension of the special services provided by SoftSettle Support is by means of MEDIATOR AFFAIR integrated in the portal www.odrsupport.com powered by SoftSettle Support.
Claim disputes rarely make it to this stage. If you are unable to reach an agreement on a claim with your insurance company, and have exhausted all of the above options, there are certain options to be worked out which includes reporting the mistreatment or bad business practices to concerned authorities and facing the investigation to evaluate whether your complaint is justified or not along with the second option of hiring an attorney to pursue the case dragging it to court litigation and bear the heavy litigation expenses.
Rather ignoring the above two options, as the first gesture, you can reliably seek the assistance of SS-Equity (Insurance Claim Settlement) using the Soft Settle platform in deciding the disputes over the insurance claim which is more convenient in settling your case may also be acceptable by your insurance company to be justifiably delivered with a win-win outcome.
