Electronics and Hi-Tech Claims

Your electronics or hi-tech company has suffered property damage. Your main focus is getting your operations back up and running, instead of worrying about the insurance claims process –  but going through with it is a necessary step to stay operational and recover. Our licensed public adjusters lift that burden off you and manage the insurance claims from start to finish. We evaluate and document not only the physical damage to your property, but also the income lost from business interruption.

    You just suffered serious damage to your electronics or hi-tech store and you are wondering what to do next.

  3. 3

    You move 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.
