Litigation Adjusters

Since our inception, we have attended over one thousand mediations and settlement conferences with great results. We were able to resolve the majority of those cases and, in some instances, for up to 50% less than our granted authority. Whether staff or panel counsel, defense counsel's duty is to defend and protect the insured. It is very helpful to have an adjuster attend to present the company's position on the case. Judges and mediators are tired of the "warm bodies" that are sent to these sessions because the court has demanded that a carrier representative appear. Many times we are assigned cases and told that the case is not going to settle, and we walked out of the mediation with a settlement on the record. As we grew to a national company, our clients asked us to monitor trials, and over the last year we were assigned 25 trials to monitor. All of our adjusters have spent years handling a pending of litigated cases and they understand the litigation process. We have monitored trials in State and Federal courts across the country, some with multimillion dollar verdict potential. We send well-trained, professional, Sr. Claims representatives with strong negotiation skills and coverage knowledge, who actively participate in the negotiation process and who actually care about the outcome of the mediation or settlement conference. Our adjusters have worked in their areas for a number of years, and are familiar with the mediators, judges, attorneys and jurisdictional nuances. Trial costs alone can be $25,000 or more. Many times we have been able to come up with creative ways to help settle cases, and other times our familiarity with the mediator has helped us get the claims concluded. I have had one of the best mediators in California ask me how to get a claim resolved. All of the other adjusters working for Litigation adjusters, Inc., have similar stories to tell. They all have extensive backgrounds in litigated claims, some were regional managers with $1 million dollars settlement authority, and all are now happy to attend mediations and settlement conferences and monitor trials. We feel that the handling adjuster is the best person to attend the settlement conference or mediation, but when the handling adjuster is unable to attend, Litigation Adjusters, Inc. is the next best option.
