The adjustor tells me I will receive fair compensation, should I trust them?

In a perfect world we should be able to trust that the insurance adjustor will be honest and fair when settling our claim. Generally this is not the case.

The adjustor works for the insurance company and their main job is to save the insurance company the most money possible.

First they establish contact with you and try to evaluate whether you know the value of your claim. They will keep an in-depth records and record phone calls hoping that there will be a discrepency in your story. They will use this later to allow them to settle for a smaller amount.

At the time they might appear to be only concerned with your well being, but their first priority is to save their company the most money possible. We can not stress the importance in contacting us before you communicate with any insurance adjustor.
