A few highlights of our Claims services include:

We offer a Toll-Free number and 24-hour-a-day access for reporting 888-201-5988.

When you file a claim, a specialist will get involved immediately and advocate for you through the entire process.

That means timely gathering and reporting, facilitating communications with the adjuster, analyzing claims for possible trends, and even going onsite to meet with you and the carrier’s adjuster.

Simply put, we don’t stop working for you until you’ve received your final settlement.

“We made the decision to hire Jim Schaeffer, of Haylor Freyer & Coon, as the broker on our workers’ compensation coverage several years ago. With the ever-changing landscape of insurance, his experience and dedication to our organization has been essential. With this change, we also gained the support of Meghan Curry on our claims. She works closely on our behalf with the carrier to ensure that claims are handled in an appropriate manner. With their combined expertise and support, Jim and Meghan have saved us tens of thousands of dollars over the last two years.”
