An independent adjuster is an independent consultant hired by insurance companies to investigate, assess, and settle insurance claims on behalf of the insurer. Independent adjusters are folks that are adjusting the claim.

A loss consultant is also someone working as an independent contractor for an insurance company, but their role is more specifically defined. For example, when we act as consultants, the Cavalry Construction & Restoration team is scoping and estimating the cost associated with the repair to a building.

It’s good to note that some parties use the term “loss consultant” erroneously when they are in actuality adjusting the claim. We sometimes see public adjusters (adjusters that represent the property owner for a fee) call themselves loss consultants. We do NOT do this.

During the consultation and assessment process, a Cavalry Construction & Restoration consultant has been hired by the insurance company to scope and cost out repairs necessary for a building after a loss. We provide these costs in real, tangible contexts. That means when we produce the estimate, we are saying that we can and will do the work for the amount of our estimate.

That depends on the size and complexity of the loss. In most cases, we can inspect, scope, and estimate the repair costs within two weeks.

As consultants, we are hired by an insurance company, which means we communicate directly with that company and its representatives. Depending on the circumstances, we may not communicate with the property owner whatsoever.
