Insurance Policy Reconstruction
Our Insurance Policy Reconstruction service is crucial for clients tendering claims for environmental liabilities. We understand the importance of providing concrete and defensible evidence of coverage under a specific policy, as carriers are often justified in denying claims without this proof. Our expertise in policy reconstruction is indispensable for policies over 40 years old, given the common scenario of incomplete or non-existent archives.
What Insurance Policy Reconstruction
Involves
Insurance policy reconstruction is a fundamental service for many of our clients, as the majority need some level of insurance policy reconstruction before they can tender a claim.
We begin by attempting to find evidence of the original primary insurance policy. The original policy (primary evidence) itself is the best proof we can use, when possible.
When primary evidence is unavailable, we turn to secondary evidence, which is admissible in most states, to validate historical insurance policies, including portions of historical policies, canceled checks with policy numbers, corporate records, etc.
Using our extensive proprietary database, we can often identify specimen policies based on secondary evidence, which your coverage attorneys can use to advocate for you, the policyholder/client.
