Business Insurance Claims

Business insurance claims are a type of formal notice to an insurance company that you have suffered a loss that you believe entitles you to compensation.

Once you file a claim, your insurance company is required to investigate it and then compensate you for the financial harm you suffered, assuming the payment is warranted under the terms of the insurance policy.

Types of Small Business Insurance Claims

There are many types of small business insurance claims. Broadly speaking, they fall into the following areas:

  • Property damage
  • Liability
  • Business interruption
  • Bodily injury
  • Disability (workers’ compensation)

Insurers must comply with the claims requirements of their state’s insurance statutes. This involves working with claimants (insureds and other parties who are requesting claim payments) fairly and in good faith. Some specific duties include:

  • Handling the matter in a reasonable amount of time
  • Settling claims equitably under the terms of the insurance policy
  • Not denying claims without due cause
  • Providing reasons for claim denials
  • Providing a process for consumers to appeal claim denials

I recommend Public Loss Adjusters without hesitation! I finally hired them after being overpowered by the insurance company. I couldn’t take their insistence in declining to pay fairly. They secured the settlement and we got their asking price.
