SAVE STRESS

Using a loss assessor to manage your home insurance claim has many benefits:

  • Expert Knowledge and Experience

    Loss assessors are experts in the field of insurance claims. We understand the intricacies of policy wording, coverage limits, and the claims process. This expertise ensures that nothing is overlooked and you receive the full extent of your entitled compensation.

  • Maximised Claim Value

    A loss assessor works on your behalf to ensure that the claim is accurately assessed and valued. We can identify all the losses and damages that should be included in the claim, usually resulting in a higher payout than if you handled the claim independently.

  • Time and Stress Reduction

    Managing an insurance claim can be time-consuming and stressful, especially during a difficult period. A loss assessor handles all the administrative tasks, communications, and negotiations with the insurance company, allowing you to focus on other important matters.

  • Fair Representation

    Insurance companies have loss adjusters who assess claims on their behalf. Hiring a loss assessor, like Oakleafe Claims, ensures that you have a professional on your side, advocating for your best interests and ensuring that the settlement is fair and just.

  • Efficient Claim Process

    Loss assessors streamline the claims process by completing all required documentation and submitting it promptly. Our experience can help avoid delays and disputes, facilitating a quicker resolution.

Another satisfied client shares their experience:

"Oakleafe were very innovative to get my claim through under adverse conditions when my Insurer refused to pay. They have experts at interpreting the policy wording and within a few weeks Oakleafe had everything back on track. I ended up with a huge sum. Humble and professional. I would highly recommend this company to everyone. I found them on the internet but apparently 90% of their work is from referrals and repeat customers. I think that is the ultimate testimonial for any company." - John Hampshire, Oakleafe Client on TrustPilot

domestic Claims management faqs

Domestic Claims Management refers to the process of handling insurance claims for personal property or residential losses.

This typically involves several key steps and considerations:

  1. Claim Initiation: The process begins when a policyholder contacts their insurance company to report a loss or damage to their home or personal property.
  2. Documentation: The claimant needs to provide detailed information about the incident, including photos, videos, and a list of damaged or lost items.
  3. Assessment: An insurance adjuster or loss assessor may be appointed to evaluate the damage and estimate repair or replacement costs.
  4. Negotiation: The insurance company and the claimant (or their representative) will discuss the claim's value and reach a settlement agreement.
  5. Repair or Replacement: Once a settlement is agreed upon, repairs can begin, or a cash settlement may be provided.
  6. Professional Assistance: Claimants can manage the process themselves or hire a Claims Management Company (CMC) to represent their interests.

It's important to note that while CMCs can provide valuable assistance, they charge fees for their services. As of March 1, 2022, there are fee caps in place to ensure fair value for claimants:

  • For claims up to £1,499: Maximum 30% fee, capped at £420
  • For claims £1,500 to £9,999: Maximum 28% fee, capped at £2,500
  • For claims £10,000 to £24,999: Maximum 25% fee, capped at £5,000
  • For claims £25,000 to £49,999: Maximum 20% fee, capped at £7,500
  • For claims £50,000+: Maximum 15% fee, capped at £10,000

Claimants should be aware that they can often handle claims themselves without incurring these fees, and free guidance is available from organisations like MoneyHelper.

However, for complex claims or when facing difficulties with the insurance company, professional assistance from a CMC or loss assessor can be beneficial in navigating the process and potentially securing a more favourable settlement.
