The Claim Story

1. The claim position

A major fire at a 288-unit multifamily property created a complex building-damage claim with related business-interruption impacts.

2. The ICRS approach

ICRS documented the physical damage and organized the property and income-loss components so the claim could be evaluated as one coordinated large-loss matter.

3. The documented outcome

The documented recovery exceeded $4 million, including a claim increase of more than $300,000 and $58,000 in business-interruption proceeds.

Why This Result Matters

Multifamily fire claims extend beyond visible building damage. Lost income, displaced residents, repairs and the timing of restoration can materially affect the policyholder’s financial position.

Every property insurance claim is fact-specific. The value of a disciplined claim process is that damage, coverage issues and financial impacts can be evaluated and presented from the policyholder’s perspective.

Approximately 90% of claims are settled without unnecessary litigation. ICRS works its files by pursuing the truth of what the policyholder is actually owed—not simply what an insurer feels should be paid.
