Question 4 of 16 in Claim Settlement

What if I do not like the settlement offered by the company?


When it comes time to settle with the insurance company, the insurer will ask you to sign a form that “releases” the insurance company from further responsibility for the claim. If you do not agree with the proposed settlement amount, do not accept it and do not sign the release. You will need to hire your own expert (such as an independent adjuster) or get an attorney involved to resolve the terms and amount of the dispute.
