Conduct targeted public-record, docket, DMV, property, licensing, corporate, and other database research to assist with liability, damages, recovery, and exposure analysis.
Perform open-source and social media research to corroborate liability facts, claimed injuries, damages, activities, employment status, business operations, or other relevant claim issues; document search methodology and preserve findings appropriately.
Assist with medical and damages development by requesting authorizations, ordering medical records and bills, organizing records, preparing medical chronologies, summarizing specials, and identifying prior injuries, causation issues, apportionment issues, treatment gaps, liens, or other damages-related concerns.
Support claim examiners by preparing concise factual summaries, damages summaries, investigation timelines, witness summaries, and issue lists that identify completed work, outstanding needs, and recommended next steps.
Monitor and document the progress of investigations handled by claimants, insureds, vendors, defense counsel, underlying carriers, or other involved parties, as applicable.
Identify investigative gaps, delays, inconsistencies, or divergence from claim-handling best practices and escalate issues to the assigned claim examiner or manager.
Scope, assign, and manage vendors, including field investigators, scene inspectors, nurse reviewers, medical record review vendors, accident reconstructionist, engineers, cause-and-origin experts, and other claim-support resources.
Define vendor deliverables, timelines, budgets, and follow-up expectations, review vendor work product for completeness, accuracy, and usefulness to the claim file.
Assist with litigation and pre-litigation file development by organizing key facts, evidence, records, timelines, and claim materials for claim examiners, managers, and defense counsel.
Support claim quality by ensuring investigative activities, evidence requests, vendor assignments, and summaries are documented clearly and timely in the claim file.
Communicate professionally with insureds, claimants, counsel, vendors, internal business partners, and other parties as appropriate.
Perform other claim investigation, file development, and claim support duties as assigned.

Education & Experience
