About Commercial Auto Insurance claims
If you’re involved in an accident, as your insurance agency we take care of the process. However, it’s important to note that the insurance company will conduct an investigation using an adjuster to determine coverage.
That being said, according to the terms and conditions of the contract you signed, there may not be coverage for the claim. It’s always a good idea to review your insurance policy carefully and understand what is and isn’t covered.
If you need to discuss your claim, the first step would be to contact the adjuster assigned by the insurance company. In case you do not have contact with the adjuster(a) designated by the insurance company, please contact us so that we can manage the process from the internal department of the agency.
When you file a claim, it could potentially affect your policy. If the claim is recorded in your loss history, your policy might experience a hike in the premiums. This will depend on the level of risks involved in the incident and the severity of the accident.
According to the terms and conditions of your insurance policy, if the insured company requires you to pay the deductible, then it must be paid regardless of guilt or fault. You can find this information on the declaration pages of your policy.
This varies by the insurance company, but it usually takes 1 to 8 business days to provide us with information about the case. Internally, the process is immediate once the customer sends all the required information.
- Photos of the accident (if there was one)
- Police report (If there was one).
- Statement about what happened
- Our customer policy number
- Date of loss
Yes, if you have insurance information from the other party. In addition, as an insurance agency, we also take care of submitting the report to the company of the person who has affected our client.
