Labor Day Weekend at Michigan Fire Claims Inc.

I was able to give our staff at Michigan Fire Claims Inc a four day Labor Day weekend and it seems that all are enjoying with activities.  We have had a busy month in August and I know this was an especially good break for our team.        Our Grand Rapids office will miss Theresa Payne who has taken a position in Washington DC to be close with family.  Theresa all of us here at Michigan Fire Claims Inc. will miss you.  Good Luck with your new public adjusters license in Washington DC and don’t forget all your friends here in the Detroit and Grand Rapids area.

Grand Rapids Adjusters

The meeting with several public adjusters and insurance adjusters at the Holiday Inn in Grand Rapids went well.  Grand Rapids has been a hub of activity in the adjusting field all summer long.  We have a debate on either having another adjusters meeting in Lansing or bring it back to Grand Rapids at the Holiday Inn.  I will keep everyone posted on dates and times.

Wind Clean Up In Whitmore Lake

The City of Whitmore Lake  has done a great job of cleaning up the hundreds of trees that damaged the area after last weeks wind storms.  Michigan seems to have experienced a lot more severe storms this year than in recent years.  Dundee had a tornado and there were high winds and lots of damage reported in Kalamazoo, Battle Creek, Monroe and even Grand Rapids.  We hope that this will be the last of the strong storms this summer.

Personal Adjuster

Personal adjusters are better known as public adjusters.  Either name still means someone that works for you.  I have clients that only refer to me as a personal adjuster.  They seem to like the term and I don’t mind.  The John Davis family in Grand Rapids, would like to extend a thank you to all the help that their community gave during the aftermath of their house fire in January of 2010.  John had no insurance on his home and asked me to thank his neighbors and our office, through this blog, for all of the help and donations to his family.  John would not call me a public adjuster.  He wanted to only think of me as a personal adjuster.  John, my staff and I wish you nothing but the best.

Flooded Basement Problems and Water Claim Questions

There have been a lot of questions on what insurance companies cover and policy limitations on flooded basement.  Several calls have been recieved from the Grand Rapids, Saginaw, Bay City areas in regards to water damge in their basements.  Most home insurance policies have endorsements that limit the amount of recovery due to water backup.  When the damage occurs from a broken pipe, the actual dwelling limit on the policy is in full affect.  You should always contact your agent to be aware of the policy language and limitations on your policy.
