According the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, there is absolutely no formal training needed for you to turn into a Insurance Adjuster, save a High School Diploma, and also the median wage with an Adjuster is $55,760 as of May 2008. Using this type of knowledge you have to wonder why the Insurance Adjuster has this kind of inflated picture of her or his skills and demands unquestioned compliance from service repair shop unfortunate enough to submit their bill to the telltale low skilled and under educated megalomaniacs.

The low education requirement well demonstrates the typical Adjuster’s inability to grasp and accurately are the cause of such concepts as education, expertise, longevity, and good will. The “rationalization” displayed by many Adjusters is quite like the “rationalization” of your football player with a lot of head injuries. As opposed to fairly considering company A’s experience, expertise, and listing of successful projects for payment, the Adjuster only will offer to spend company A what it is new franchisee lap dog would like to settle for… obviously for a fee that is less then reasonable when compared to similarly educated and experienced industry experts. Arguing these points having an Adjuster will be as effective as playing with a deflated ball… they are simply incompetent at understanding such abstract concepts.

We learned years ago if you deploy someone’s mannerisms and words against them, there is little change recourse. On this light we herein propose the next solutions for fellow professional water damage restoration brethren when confronted with an Adjuster… use their tactics against them.

When told that the competitor could have billed the identical job for a fee below yours, simply tell the Adjuster that the similarly educated kid in high school graduation would have done exactly the same task for Less than $56k annual salary the Adjuster expects through the company they represent and Minus the expectation of benefits, time off work, or bonuses. When the Adjuster rebuts and outlines the training, certifications, and experience they have gained over their years with their company, inquire further how and why your certifications, training, and industry experience is unique. When told that reducing your, legitimate, bill, for that legitimate work that has been done for the claim, would save the insurance company money, tell the Adjuster that dropping her or his RECURRING salary rather than to consider any bonus through the insurance company would save the insurance policy company a lot more money. Fair is fair and right is proper.

It’s money.

It’s your choice.
