FIND EXPERTS

Our technically qualified and RICS accredited team provide a professional and cost-effective resource to ensure timely progression of remedial works and early quantum verification.

Working with our adjusting teams on property, construction, energy and liability claims across the world they have proven success in helping:

  • the parties avoid disputes during the claims process,
  • to reduce insurers’ claims indemnity-spend, and
  • to manage insured parties’ expectations by the early identification and mitigation of potential uninsured exposures that may arise in any claim situation.

The team’s support to Advanta adjusters is also critical to ensure that, in a construction environment, contractual claims are appropriately dealt with separately from the insurance claims assessment process.
