What Is an Insurance Claims Adjuster?
An insurance claims adjuster gathers and analyzes information about various insurance claims. He or she attempts to determine the legitimacy of a claim, deciding whether or not an incident should be covered under a specific insurance policy. An adjuster then negotiates compensation terms with the claimant. A claim which is not settled is usually brought to court, where an insurance claims adjuster may be required to provide expert testimony and present reports to a judge.
