We understand that our client’s priority is to have claims assessed, and have any disputes resolved expediently in order to restore business operations as quickly as possible. From receipt of our appointment, we immediately assess the urgency of the claim and prioritise accordingly.
The necessary documents are called for, and, where requested to do so, we obtain documentation from third parties on behalf of the client.
Our GIT assessing and Marine Surveying includes a full service of:
Our experience with GIT covers a wide spectrum
of assessments including inter alia:
We ensure careful investigation of the cause of loss and prove or refute the responsible parties’ liabilities. We then assess whether the amount claimed is reasonable, and whether additional claimable items have been included.
Our extensive understanding of the goods and services industries, and the various company insurance policies, ensures that our handling of salvaged goods is managed efficiently and effectively according to individual company protocols.
We work with several reputable salvage buyers to facilitate the salvaging process and ensure the expedient resolution of salvage disposals, and the resultant benefits in terms of more effective loss mitigation.
When it comes to export loads, we understand that some marine policies request that an inventory be conducted with a full report. We focus on pre-shipment surveys for non-perishable export consignments and appoint an independent surveyor to carry out an audit against the packing list. We then provide a detailed report of the findings upon closure and sealing of the container.
Our services are extended to include the assessment and quantification of commercial claims. We deal with a variety of commercial insurable incidents such as burglary, water damage, and fire, to name a few. The utmost care is taken to ensure we fully understand each business and their stock system in order to provide an accurate assessment of the loss.
