Major Corporate Claims

Since 1946, The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International has been helping major corporate clients negotiate fair and just settlements for lost and damaged property due to storms, floods, wildfires, and man-made accidents. As licensed public adjusters, we evaluate and document not only the physical damages to your facilities and property, but also the income lost from business interruption.

Contact Us Factors To Consider

Time and again you had the creative solution, the tough negotiating point, or the quick response necessary to keep our insurance claim on track with the insurance adjusters. I am convinced that without your unflagging enthusiasm for this claim we would not have settled as quickly, nor for as much as we ultimately did.

Richard Q. Russeth - The Pillsbury Company
  1. 1

    You just suffered serious property damage or business interruption and you are wondering what to do next.

  2. 2

    You call your insurance company and wait for an adjuster to come out, hoping that they will have your best interests at heart.

  3. 3

    You moved from the asset side of your insurance company's ledger to the liability side of their ledger.

We Can Help

Knowing everything you possibly can about the "fine print" of your insurance policy before you have any substantive dialogue with your insurer is an absolute necessity. Know what you are covered for and how to claim it. What you say to your insurance company's adjuster and how you say it can make a dramatic difference in how much you get paid. The more you know, the better the results.

Major Corporate Factors to Consider

Be sure to understand each of the following factors before engaging with the insurance company. Knowledge is the key to a successful claim outcome.

Download Factors to Consider
  • What is my broker's/agent’s role?
  • Does the adjuster work for us or the insurance company? Why they can't work for both. It's a conflict.
  • Does the insurance company pay for professionals necessary to evaluate my claim? Are they working for me or them?
  • Warranties and Protective Safeguard requirements. What do they mean? Can I still collect if I am not in full compliance?
  • What is the difference between a schedule of values and a schedule of limits?
  • Does my risk manager have the requisite skill sets to negotiate a large property claim?
  • Is there coinsurance in my policy? What does it mean?
  • Credit for continuing sales. How are they calculated?
  • What happens when the insurance company engages a forensic accountant? Who does that accountant work for?
  • What are extra expenses? What can be included? Can I use extra expenses to offset shortfalls in property coverages?
  • Is the insurance company using an independent building or equipment consultant to prepare a bid? Who are these consultants? Who are they working for? Do they only work for insurance companies?
  • How is actual cash value determined? Why should I care?
  • Can I compensate employees who help with cleaning or restoration?
  • Replacement properties. Lease purchase strategy. Is it good for me?
  • Replacing versus repairing equipment/processing lines. Pros and cons.
  • How quickly can I get started rebuilding?
  • How does my policy address increased costs due to new codes? If my coverage is limited, what can I do about it?
  • Will the insurance company pay for a construction manager?
  • Should I have concerns as to how my insurer deals with pollutants - hazardous materials - lead & asbestos?
  • How do smoke and the water used to fight the fire affect my machinery? Equipment? Computers? Other electronics?
  • Can I recast my financial statements? If so, why?
  • Do I understand why coinsurance clauses in loss of income coverage can lead to disastrous results when including labor expenses in the cost of goods manufactured and exclude those labor expenses in the business interruption evaluation?
  • Can I continue to pay my employees?
  • What is the extended period of indemnity, and how does it work?
  • What is the difference between Actual Loss Sustained and Sales Value of Production and how does it affect my claim?
  • What are expediting expenses? How do they differ from extra expenses?
  • How do I project lost sales? Sales declines?
  • How do I project sales of new products?
  • Can I use proformas/budgets to calculate loss of income?
  • Increased efficiency and productivity with new equipment. Does the insurance company get a “credit?”
  • Temporary facilities. Portables. Hardscape. Temporary or permanent? How presenting my story can affect my recovery. Do I know my policy provisions?
  • Temporary production in other owned or non-owned locations? What happens at the end of my claim?
