Successful Claims Recoveries Made by Professional Insurance Evaluations

Kacha vs. Allstate Insurance Company – An Important Case for Insurance Claims Recovery

Kacha vs Allstate Insurance Company was an insurance dispute in which Kevin Dawson of Professional Insurance Evaluations acted as public adjuster presented a claim in appraisal and successfully appealed to the California Court of Appeal. The court ruled that an appraisal is limited to determining the actual cash value of the loss and that appraisers are not authorized to determine coverage for such loss, thus increasing the amount Dawson’s client received from Allstate Insurance Company and helping future insurance policy holder claims. The published case established policy holders rights in disputed property claims.
