MCAA Insurance Consultant
Much has been written about insurance but many times the specific question which you would like answered is not covered. Readers are invited to submit questions on any insurance matter. While all may not be answered via this column, every question submitted will be studied and answered by Mr. Derk personally.
Question:
A General Contractor is withholding $8,500 from us because of some damage our men supposedly caused, and so far my insurance company has not been of much help. Any recommendations?
Answer:
This is one of the most frustrating situations in the business world. Your men allegedly caused property damage, you are thoroughly covered by insurance (your broker has done a good job, incidentally), and all that remains to be done is for someone to make claim against you. After that, your company will defend you and pay the damages when convinced that you really are at fault. Instead, the General Contractor has taken matters into his own hands and is withholding payment for work performed.
If the contract wording permits your filing suit to collect for work performed, I'd do just that.
Question:
How can I be sure of getting a fair settlement?
Answer:
This is one place where your insurance representative earns his keep.
Question:
Can you give me a list of first class insurance people in our area? Our broker recently retired.
Answer:
A brief list is attached, but don't overlook staying where you are; your broker sold his existing business to a big. highly-renowned firm before he retired.
Question:
Any chance of your doing an informal insurance survey for our company by mail?
