Business Interruption Claims

Business Interruption (BI) claims pertain to the loss of income your business may experience due to damage or losses from fire, storms, flooding, burglary, vandalism or water damage. The occurrence of these events can threaten the future of your business. You may have lost valuable equipment, machinery, stock or even your building if the damage was that extensive which leaves you unable to operate as normal. Not being able to operate your business as before means that you will suffer a loss of income. You need to be able to get back to trading as soon as possible. Any days lost are depleting your savings and profits. 

The BI claims process is extremely complicated with a lot of fine print and many pitfalls laid out for you. It is best to approach these claims by having an Insurance Claims Expert like Brendan there to fight your battle. It is best to recruit an Insurance Claims Expert as soon as you possibly can to deal with the claim and to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. Having an expert to handle your claim will pay off in the end. 

Brendan will manage your claim from start to end. He handles everything from the initial assessment trough to the documentation and negotiation stages.

It is advisable to get an Insurance Claims Expert on board before you begin your claim as it ensures you get sorted faster but Brendan can also step in and take over a claim that you have already started with your Insurer. 

Brendan has worked with many businesses tackling the tricky business of BI claims. He has extensive experience in this area. His main aim is to ensure that your best interests are met. He supports you through the process, maximises your pay out figure and helps you to get back on your feet and start trading again promptly.

While many insurance companies will assist you at the outset of your fire claim, their only responsibility is to ensure costs are covered to restore your property and replace affected contents. The most stressful and time-consuming day-to-day elements will be left to you to organise and oversee alone if you do not appoint a Loss Assessor

There is no reason why your insurance company or Loss Adjuster should discourage you from appointing your own Loss Assessor to manage your fire insurance claim. 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 covered within their insurance policy

We provide a range of services including public loss assessing, claims consultation and even pre-loss assessments to examine your property and make sure you are not under-insured or over-insured. 

The types of claims we manage include:

  • Fire, explosion, lightning, earthquake
  • Smoke
  • Storm or Flood
  • Escape of Water / Burst Pipe
  • Impact Damage
  • Theft / Malicious damage / Vandalism
  • Third Party Claims
  • Subsidence / Heave
  • Freezing
  • Escape of Oil
  • Accidental Damage

1. Call us… BEFORE you call your insurance company  
We will handle all communication with your insurance company. We will report the claim, using the specific terminology that Insurance companies understand and ensure your claim gets off on the right foot. 

2. We will assess the coverage under your policy
We will review the terms, coverage, and benefits your policy offers
We explain the fine print, so you understand any restrictions or requirements specified in your policy

3. We help you secure interim funds if needed 
You may be able to request advance funds from the insurance company so you can support your needs during the time the claim is being processed. We can help with this. 
Work with other professionals (accountants, engineers, consultants, etc.), help you manage your finances with respect to the loss
Organize and prepare a complete list of your additional living expenses for residential claims. Work with your insurance company to obtain reimbursement for these expenses

4. Assess the Damage and Submit the Claim
We will conduct a detailed review of all damage to your property, evaluate it, and document it. This may include procuring replacement estimates or specialist quotes, which we will provide.

We will prepare and submit all completed documentation to the insurance company using industry-standard language and terminology, maximizing the likelihood of a fair and prompt settlement.

What our Clients say

I would highly recommend Brendan to look after your insurance claim. We had the unfortunate experience of a burst pipe in the attic causing huge damage to our house. Throughout this very stressful time Brendan was always at the other end of the phone to keep us updated and successfully negotiated a favourable settlement. Brendan dealt directly with our insurance company throughout the entire claim process taking out all of that extra stress and hassle for ourselves. I am confident that we would not have had the successful outcome without the professional assistance and guidance from Brendan and would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone with an insurance claim.
A colleague of mine referred me to Brendan Boyle Insurance Claims Consultants when my home was damaged by a chimney fire. Once I contacted Brendan, he arranged to call out immediately and took all the details and fully dealt with my Insurance Company on my behalf. He took away all the stress of dealing with them and and I was able to get on with my own life and not worry about what to do. Brendan agreed an excellent scope of works with the insurance company's Loss Adjuster which included a lot of items i had not thought about claiming for. I was very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism and highly recommend his service.
