Prag House is an 8,000 square foot, three story structure with a full basement. Between the fire and the 25,000 gallons of water necessary to put it out, every floor and the basement sustained significant damage. How could we possibly embark on the steep learning curve required to responsibly oversee this work, while also working our full time jobs and fulfilling family obligations? We had dozens of questions and no answers. Frankly, none of us had ever heard of public adjusters. But after meeting with The Greenspan Co./Adjuster's International team to understand what they could do for us, and doing some research on different public adjuster firms, we decided to hire The Greenspan Co./Adjuster's International. It was, hands down, the best decision we could have made! Drew and The Greenspan Co./Adjuster's International team are extremely knowledgeable about the complex insurance laws and practices that most of us know little or nothing about – and yet can prove to be the most critical factor driving everything else. Bottom line: Hiring a public adjuster firm may seem expensive, especially in the initial hours and days after such a life-altering event, when money is tight and it’s hard to know how much anything will cost. It may be tempting to think it’s not really necessary. But if you hire the right public adjuster, it will be the best decision you make! The Greenspan Co./Adjuster's International was worth every penny we paid them!
Though I have owned several homes, I am not a contractor, and the many ins and outs of construction were somewhat mysterious to me. Since this was my first, and hopefully last fire, I am also unaware of the subtleties of negotiating with a reticent insurance company. These two elements would have made my claim to Safeco a walk in the park for them. It would have left me with tens of thousands of dollars less that I now have recovered, thanks to the diligent work of David Verbits, who was my advocate during this extremely complex process.
We sincerely appreciate your skills and efforts in navigating us through all the problems and hurdles that the insurance company threw our way. First, you were instrumental in dealing with the tenants and their displacement. Second, your claim strategy and game plan for the mitigation efforts were well thought out and crafted towards a speedy recovery. Third, the team of experts you retained, including your construction consultant was a tremendous asset to our eventual settlement. Fourth, your interaction with our lender and diligence in following up to get their attorneys on track with our recovery was extremely helpful. Finally, the skills you and your team employed in negotiating with our insurance company and its army of consultants and adjusters resulted in a policy limits resolution.
Had it not been for your competence and experience, it was a certainty that the negotiations would have dragged into months, if not years. Thank you for your patience with us, recognizing very well that we had just gone through a very stressful situation.
Looking back at the work you and your firm did to get me top dollar for my insurance claim is not only appreciated but it made a big difference when we started the fire restoration. Adjusters International did everything they said they would do and then some...It was a pleasure to see you hold State Farm Insurance accountable for the full amount of my insurance coverage. The money you charged was worth every penny because you saved me much aggravation, plus you got me such a great settlement. Thank you, thank you!
We have been involved in real estate and property management for many years and property damage is a day to day fact of our business. Prior to this fire loss, we had no idea that experts such as your company could assist us in maneuvering through the maze of technicalities and red tape to recover sufficient insurance dollars to pay for our losses. There is no question in our minds that your involvement assured us that our Victorian would be restored exactly as it was prior to the fire and not in a patched manner that the insurance company insisted upon. Further, your expertise defeated the myriad problems that the insurance company brought up regarding our existing policy and the resulting dollar recovery more than paid for your fee.
When the fire hit last year it had a devastating affect on us. Still in shock, we initially were reluctant to hire the services of an outside public adjuster to help us in settling our claim. We were concerned to lose a portion of whatever little money we would get from the insurance company to an agency that requested a share of all our proceeds once the claim would get settled. As it turned out, the best decision we made in the midst of chaos, was to hire The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International. In the end, you were indispensable to us in dealing with the insurance company. Not only was your commission hard earned and well deserved, but without a shadow of a doubt do I know, that the final settlement amount would have been far less had it not been for your involvement and participation in the overall process.
Working with you and your staff made me realize that I would not have been as successful dealing with the insurance company alone. The process of settling an insurance claim was far more complex than I ever imagined. You are your staff provided the expertise needed to settle my claim equitably.
