Loss of revenue is often a result of an incident such as a fire or flood. Business Interruption Insurance covers these financial losses. Business Interruption's main aim is to help with elements such as loss of profits and rental. Business interruption looks forwards, not look backwards. A Business Interruption claim can often run for years after the event as the financial loss to a business may continue long after it is back in business. There may be other costs such as marketing that are needed to get custom back. If you are looking to make a Commercial Business Interruption Insurance Claim, we as Loss Assessors can help calculate this. Remember Loss Assessors work for your interests and Loss adjusters represent the insurance company and their interests. Any claim where there is B.I. will usually mean the assistance of an insurance claim management company specialist like us.
BOOK APPOINTMENTProjecting how your business would be performing had the claim not occurred is extremely challenging. You have to show to Insurers what the company's performance historically would be, and other factors that may have influenced trading over the affected period. Markets are forensically examined to see how they are performing generally, as well as local factors such as changes in competition. Preparing and presenting these to Insurers in order to maximise your entitlement is a time-consuming exercise requiring significant experience, creativity, and understanding.
LOSS ASSESSINGOur primary role is to minimise the impact on your day-to-day business, helping your operations to recover.
