Third party insurance claim advice for homeowners
You will need to make a third party claim if you’ve suffered as a result of someone else’s negligence, for example, a contractor working on your property, an architect, surveyor, or even a neighbour. If damage is caused to your property as a result of someone else’s negligence, you have the right to make an insurance claim.
The insurance claim process for third party claims can be particularly complicated. There may be problems with the third party’s insurance cover or they could try to avoid accepting liability. Unlike a regular insurance claim, the law dictates that it is the claimant’s responsibility to prove that the third party is liable.
If you appoint Morgan Clark to manage your insurance claim, you will have your Loss Assessor’s direct contact details, they will be your single point of contact throughout the claims process and you will no longer have to go through your insurance company’s call centre.

What will my insurance company think if I appoint a Loss Assessor?
-
There is no reason why your insurance company or Loss Adjuster should discourage you from appointing your own Loss Assessor. If your Loss Adjuster is trying to dissuade you from using our services, you should question why they are against the idea of you being equally represented. After all, a Loss Assessor can only help a policyholder claim for what is legally within their insurance contract. Click here to read more about Loss Adjusters.

Doesn’t my insurance company manage my claim?
-
While many insurance companies will support you in the initial weeks of your claim, their only responsibility is to ensure costs are covered to restore your property and replace damaged contents, stock, machinery etc. (if applicable). As your claim progresses, you will be left with the most stressful and time consuming day-to-day elements to organise and oversee alone if you do not appoint a Loss Assessor.
-
What’s the difference between a Loss Assessor and a Loss Adjuster?
-
Loss Assessors and Loss Adjusters are both insurance claim professionals, but there is one key difference in their role during the insurance claim process; a Loss Assessor is appointed by and works exclusively for the policyholder, while a Loss Adjuster is appointed and paid by the insurance company. Loss Adjusters are expected to remain independent. Read more about the difference between Loss Assessors and Loss Adjusters here.
