Claims Reporting Instructions

Scan the QR Code below to access claims reporting directory

No matter how strong your risk management program, you will unfortunately encounter claims. Accidents do occur and prompt, complete reporting is the first step towards a successful outcome. The more information you can provide when reporting a claim, the sooner an adjuster can respond. When reporting a claim, here are several tips to assist you:

  • Report the claim immediately — don’t delay. If this is a serious injury / accident, please be sure to PHONE your claim directly.

  • Please do not web report, email or fax claims of this nature.

  • Collect as much information as possible regarding the loss, such as date and time, policy numbers, reporting location, parties involved, accident description, type of injury and estimated damages.

  • Submit all police reports, estimates, photos and any materials/receipts to the adjuster handling the claim.

  • Do not speak with third parties about the claim, do not discuss “fault.”

  • When in doubt, please use caution and submit all matters to your carrier.
