When Daniel Hogan, CEO of D.C. Hogan & Associates, Inc., launched his public adjusting firm, he understood the frustrations of a policyholder. Having had his property lost due to fire and water, Dan realized how a policyholder is not a representation by the insurance company adjuster and how he had to endure a long, frustrating, and tedious process to cover their losses. With a deep understanding of claimants’ plights, he started his Public Adjuster Career in 2008. Dan Hogan has helped over 4000 clients and has recovered over 250 million for the insured.

As the pandemic caused notable delay in claim process because the carrier’s adjuster and staff worked remotely, it became clear that we as a Public Adjuster Firm had to be more diligent then ever to get the claim paid accordingly to the time frame in the Policy and State Statue.
The pandemic had caused business income loss more challenging with a Insured covered peril the normal practice for BI documentation is the P&L for the last 6 to 12 months and with Business slow down because of the pandemic we had to get the carrier to review 12 to 24 months of P&L statement to get a true indication of the true Business loss.
