The Advantage of a Three Step Insured Property Loss Claims Strategy
You just received a call on your cell that a small fire has occurred at the office building you manage and coincidentally operate out of. You return to your office to find that while the fire was small, the subsequent fire sprinkler damage is heavy…. Now what?
