Claim Champions LLC Puts More Money in Homeowners' Pockets

WELLESLEY, Mass., March 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Massachusetts homeowners facing storm damage clean-up and other home repairs can get the money they deserve by tapping into a valuable resource called Claim Champions, a team of licensed public adjusters. Claim Champions, through its information-rich website and team of claims experts, serves as the homeowners advocate. The public adjuster service is a relatively unknown industry but has been in existence for decades. These claims experts work on behalf of the homeowner to help get them the maximum settlement allowed under their insurance policy. A 2010 government study found that homeowners who hired a public adjustor on average increased their settlements by 574% for claims from non-catastrophic events.

Storm damage or other destructive events can be financially devastating for any property owner. On top of that, the settlement provided by insurance companies often does not cover the full cost of damage repair, requiring high out of pockets costs. This is where Claim Champions makes a difference. Its team of licensed claims experts will analyze the insurance policy, properly document all of the damage, create and implement a plan of attack, and negotiate the maximum settlement possible for the policyholder. As a result, consumers typically receive a far higher settlement than if they handled the claim alone. There are no up-front costs to the policyholder since Claim Champions only gets paid if a settlement is reached.

"When the worst happens--house fire, a burst pipe, or wind damage, most homeowners don't know how to work with the insurance company to get full compensation for damage. As a matter of fact, most homeowners get a fraction of what they deserve from insurance companies," explained Eric Raisman, certified public insurance adjustor with Claim Champions LLC. "We work for you, not the insurance company, and we know what kind of money it will take to repair even the hidden damage."

Claim Champions provides tips, Homeowner Claim FAQs and relevant expertise to equip policy holders with the information and support they need to ensure their interests are protected. While it's in the best interest for the policyholder to get Claim Champions involved as soon as there is property damage, we still may be able to help even after an insurance claim has been settled.
