Service Roles
UMPIRE
When the complexity of a claim reaches the level of appraisal and the appraisers need to move settlement forward, I serve as the party charged with reaching consensus in the appraisal process, conducting myself in a manner that upholds the integrity, trust and fairness inherent of the process and my appointment.
Prudent appraisers are wise to secure my place on the Appraisal Panel when they accept their original assignment. Before appraisers reach a point of impasse is the time to complete Selection of Umpire. This allows time to eliminate any conflicts of interest among parties and to learn of my qualifications and experience. Often, I am also called upon by Judicial Appointment.
You may never need to invoke my role, but best to be prepared. Call me today.
Appraiser
The majority of my portfolio is as the Appraiser for Carriers and Claims Service firms to ascertain the true value of damages in the Appraisal Process. I work with the Opposing Appraiser and the Umpire, if necessary, to provide all documentation necessary to reach a consensus and settle the claim.
I welcome service as the Appraiser for property owners directly where I can do so without conflict of interest. Owners and their agents can speak to me directly about the Appraisal process prior to their decision.

As a General Adjuster, my loss portfolio includes single family, multi-unit condominiums, standalone franchises, hotels, and commercial malls. I generally service daily claims in Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and southwest Michigan.
