Homes and Seasonal Residences
As a homeowner, the physical, financial, and emotional losses incurred by a natural or man-made disaster can be devastating. Your focus should be on yourself and family. You do not need the extra stress of understanding the property insurance claim process.
As your licensed public adjusters, we evaluate, document, and negotiate not only the physical damage to your property, but also the income lost from business interruption and the extra expenses that are incurred.
Our team understands the complexities of the insurance claim process and leverages our expertise to optimize your settlement.

Your home just suffered serious damage and you are wondering what you need to do to expedite financial and physical recovery.

You call your insurance company and wait for an adjuster to arrive, assuming you’ll receive what your insurance policy states you’re covered for. Afterall, that’s why you’ve been paying your insurance premiums all along, right?

As a client of your insurance company, your claim is now a liability on its financial statements.
We Can Help
Knowing everything you possibly can about the "fine print" of your insurance policy before you have substantive dialogue with your carrier is critical. Understanding what you are covered for and how to claim it is where our experience starts to be of value.
Choosing what to say to your insurance company's adjuster and how you say it makes a dramatic difference in how much and how quickly you get paid. Globe Midwest™ Adjusters International's public adjusters are experts in insurance claim negotiation.
The more you know, the better the results, so turn to the firm who has been in the field since 1924 and has the repertoire of satisfied clients to prove it.
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.
- What is my broker's/agent’s role?
- Does the adjuster work for me or the insurance company? Why should this be a red flag?
- Does the insurance company pay for the necessary professionals to accurately evaluate my claim?
- How quickly can I start rebuilding?
- Can I do the repairs myself?
- Can a contractor properly negotiate my claim?
- Will the insurance company pay for a construction manager?
- How do I deal with lead and asbestos? What if my coverage is limited?
- Should I have concerns as to how my insurer deals with pollutants, hazardous materials, lead and asbestos?
- Is there coinsurance in my insurance policy? What does it mean?
- How is actual cash value determined? Why should I care?
...As a real estate developer and asset manager responsible for the care and oversight of high profile properties located primarily in downtown Detroit, it is vital when a claim occurs that their interest are protected to the fullest extent. In both of our recent claims, Globe Midwest™ negotiated excellent settlements which allowed the owners to achieve their goals. You were also able to overcome a difficult co-insurance issue that would have dramatically impacted one of the claims. Thank you for the great work. We are glad to offer our reference to potential clients.
