An adjuster working on a complex property damage claim closes the file, having paid out on the claim. Then they receive a notice that the insured is demanding appraisal. They call up the insured, only to find out that the insured has no idea what's going on. About Our Guest Steven J. Badger, Partner, Zelle LLP sbadger@zellelaw.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-badger-467b0322/ Notable Timestamps [ 00:20 ] - The insured signed a form on a tabet, presented to them by the contractor, without realizing it authorized a later appraisal demand. [ 01:13 ] - Steve shares an anecdote about his appraisal training sessions & debates. [ 02:39 ] - Steve's review of the trends shows that contractor-driven appraisal demands are more common now than they used to be. [ 03:50 ] - Assignment of Benefits would raise other issues and would not be permitted in all states. [ 05:15 ] - The adjuster can begin addressing an appraisal demand by contacting the insured to ask if they are aware of the demand, if the work is complete in their opinion, and the amount they paid. [ 07:22 ] - In the states where Steve practices, the contractor performing the work (and the public adjuster on the claim) cannot also act as the appraiser. [ 08:45 ] - Steve leverages his presence on LinkedIn to call out illegal behavior. [ 10:11 ] - Zelle LLP has drafted an alternative appraisal clause addressing abuses in the appraisal process.
