Welcome to Solutions by Maverick

Solutions By Maverick was able to add significant value to 100% of the claims we assisted with in 2024. With our background and years of appraisal experience, we have a strategic process that has increased our success rate.

Depending on the insurance carrier, this process could take some time. I have settled some claims in as little as a few weeks, but some carriers, and their preferred appraisers are not so quick to respond and participate. The average time to settle, and to set realistic expectations, we try to settle the claim within 2 months.

The appraisal cost will be $1,500 minimum. This minimum equates to 6 hours at $250 per hour. A 50% retainer fee is due as soon as the insured party signs the agreement. The remaining 50% is due as soon as there is a signed award, and the appraisal panel has settled. Typical residential wind/hail claims do not often exceed the minimum of $1,500.

Insurance carriers can sometimes be a headache to deal with. The typical delay, deny, and defend tactics they use can take up a lot of your company's time. We are experienced in writing legitimate estimates that carriers cannot argue. As a licensed adjuster, I understand the policy, building codes, contracting, and how to negotiate a claim.

We will invoice for 10% of any value we add to the claim. A minimum of $200 will be applied to any claim we assist. As there is never a guarantee that the carrier will comply, we must charge a minimum for our time and efforts.

Some estimates can be very confusing and complex. Additionally, insurance carriers expect an itemized and detailed estimate. This can take up a lot of your company's time and lead to frustration. We write all the estimates in Xactimate, and we are certified to do so. We offer professional estimates with all your company's info already included.

The typical turnaround time for any type of loss is 48 hours. Average wind/hail, residential claims often take less time.

The fee for estimating any type of loss is $150 per hour. Wind/Hail claim estimates will have a minimum fee of $300/2 hours, and water/fire loss estimates will have a minimum fee of $600/4 hours. Be advised that our fee for large loss and multi-unit claims will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.

With our background in claims inspections and negotiating settlements, we can help your company achieve success with insurance carriers. Some claims may feel overwhelming or intimidating.

This service provides and may be limited to the following: Meeting adjusters, reviewing documentation/communications, reviewing estimates, reviewing policy, negotiations with carriers, writing strategic letters from the insured party.

Our company can also assist with helping to create a claims division within your already existing construction company. Many contracting companies have the skill and reputation for building homes/commercial buildings. Or amazing crews for many trades but lack the knowledge or background to navigate a claim and understand policy language. We offer time-sensitive consulting contracts to review your company's operations and help develop an internal claims division.

The fee for acting as a consultant will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. The minimum fee will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
