The insurance adjuster is not mentioned in a policy of insurance. The obligation to investigate and prove a claim falls on the insured. Standard first party property insurance policies, based upon the New York Standard Fire Insurance policy, contain conditions that require the insured to, within sixty days of the loss, submit a sworn proof of loss to prove to the insurer the facts and amount of loss. The policy allows the insurer to then, and only then, respond to the insured's proof of loss. The insurer can then either accept or reject the proof submitted by the insured. Technically, if the wording of the policy was followed literally the insurer could sit back, do nothing, and wait for the proof. If the insured was late in submitting the proof the insurer could reject the claim. If the insured submits a timely proof of loss the insurer could either accept or reject the proof of loss. If the insurer rejected the proof of loss the insured could either send a new one or give up and gain nothing from the claim. Suit on the policy would be difficult because the policy contract limited the right to sue to times when the proof of loss condition had been met.Insureds and insurers were not happy with that system. It made it too difficult for a lay person to successfully present a claim. The system, as written into the standard fire policy seemed to run counter to the covenant of good faith and fair dealing that had been the basis of the insurance contract for centuries. Most insurers understood that their insureds were mostly incapable of complying with the strict enforcement of the policy conditions. To fulfill the covenant of good faith and fair dealing insurers created the insurance adjuster to fulfill its obligation to deal fairly and in good faith with the insured.

A Primer for the First Party Property AdjusterThe insurance adjuster is seldom, if ever, mentioned in a policy of insurance. The strict wording of the first party property policy sets the obligation to investigate and prove a claim on the insured. Standard first party property insurance policies, based upon the more than a century old New York Standard Fire Insurance policy, contain conditions that require the insured to, within sixty days of the loss, submit a sworn proof of loss to prove to the insurer the facts and amount of loss. In general, failure to file the proof within the time limited by the policy is fatal to an action upon it (White v. Home Mutual Ins. Co., 128 Cal. 131, 60 P. 666 (1900); Beasley v. Pacific Indem. Co., 200 Cal.App.2d 207, 19 Cal.Rptr. 299 (Cal. App. 1962). The California Supreme Court in 1900, when it decided White v. Home Mutual concluded that the requirement of proof of loss by the insured within the 60-day limit provided by the standard form of policy is a condition precedent to the right of the insured to maintain suit.

This Compact Book of Adjusting Liability Claims is designed to provide the new adjuster with a basic grounding in what is needed to become a competent and effective insurance adjuster. It is also available as a refresher for the experienced adjuster.The liability claims adjuster quickly learns that there is little difficulty with a claimant (the person alleging bodily injury or property damage against a person insured) if the claim is paid as demanded. The insured may be unhappy if the claimant's claim is paid as presented since most do not believe they did anything wrong or fear an increase in premiums charged for subsequent policies.The adjuster must be prepared to salve the insured's emotions, explain why in the law and the policy it was appropriate to pay the claimant and that the settlement is in the best interest of both the insured and the insurer the adjuster represents.The adjuster knows, and must be prepared to explain to an insured, that if a claim is resisted or denied the claimant will be unhappy, will probably file suit. If not promptly settled the claimant's lawyers will rake the insured over the coals to prove that the insured is liable for the claimant's injuries. The litigation will take time, effort, and money to establish the extent of the injuries and who is responsible for the injuries. Failure to settle promptly can cost the insured his or her reputation and will certainly cost the insurer much more than the claim could have been resolved for had it been resolved before the claimant retained a lawyer.

Insurance is a contract that requires an offer to provide insurance to a person or entity, acceptance of the offer and payment of consideration called a premium. Insurance is defined by California Insurance Code Section 22, as: "a contract whereby one undertakes to indemnify another against loss, damage, or liability arising from a contingent or unknown event." As such it is a special type of contract because it is limited to provide protection only from a contingent or unknown event. Any loss to be covered must be fortuitous, accidental, contingent or unknown. An intentional act can never be insured.The book explains what insurance is, how it is acquired, how to read and understand it, what to do when a loss occurs and how to successfully present and collect a claim to indemnify the insured from all losses incurred.
