Despite presenting evidence from forensic damage experts that proved water intrusion had caused phenolic insulation to become acidic and cause damage to the steel decking, the insurance carrier remained steadfast with their $139,000 estimate. They also denied coverage for business losses, even though the policy clearly included it. Undeterred, we connected the policyholder with a legal team, sharing all our findings to build a solid case. The outcome? A victory that resulted in a 683% increase in the settlement offer from the insurance carrier.

Right from the start, our team was involved. After an initial joint inspection, the insurance carrier proposed a settlement of $629,000. We knew that wasn’t enough. By highlighting the need for code upgrades and the replacement of outdated materials, we successfully increased the claim’s value. Although the insurance carrier initially resisted covering overhead and profit, our team’s tenacity paid off. The end result? A remarkable final settlement of $1,935,000.
