When faced with property loss claims, it’s not uncommon for insurance companies to low-ball payouts to levels well below market value, and at times delay payments until it’s too late for business or families to recover financially, or even reject claims altogether. By working with an experienced public adjusting company to represent the insured and advocate for their rights in the claim process, the insureds can significantly increase their chances of a fair and timely settlement. The successful resolution of an adjuster mediated property claim depends mostly on the adjuster’s expertise, support team, industry experience and reputation.

As partners at Michigan Fire Claims, Inc., they will benefit from the full support of an top notch adjusting team, with expertise in interpreting insurance policy, evaluating damages at replacement and actual cash value costs, filing the claim timely and accurately, mediating between the insured and the insurance company, and keeping track of all paperwork and communications.

We built this business from ground up, one successful claim at a time. They both were instrumental, so they fully deserve it,” said Nik.

Ross Poorman and Matt Slotka have more then 30 years of combined experience in the claims business. “I would not want to work for any other public adjusting firm in Michigan,” said Ross. “There is no other adjusting company in Michigan with such a reputation and track record, so I’m glad to be part of the best public adjusting firm in Michigan,” Matt added.
