July 30: Evaluating Natural Disaster Property Damage Claims

Natural disasters don’t just damage buildings; they trigger cascading failures, from shifting terrain to contaminated water, that fundamentally alter the built environment. In this high-stakes arena, a poor evaluation is more than an error; it is a financial and legal catastrophe.
Since any "large loss" claim is a candidate for litigation, every investigation must be treated as forensic. To stand up in court under Federal Rule of Evidence 702, your work must be truly scientific. This means it must be repeatable: different experts using the same data and methods should reach a consistent conclusion.
We all know the industry often falls short of this standard. However, you can navigate the chaos of a disaster claim by utilizing rigorous, professional structures.
This presentation is designed for owners, insurers, and attorneys. We will explore current industry trends, establish a framework for reliable investigation, and analyze case studies, from wildfire-impacted homes to storm-damaged high-rises, to demonstrate how expert analysis leads to successful resolutions.
