I'm certain if we had not had access to your excellent services, we would have settled for a much smaller sum for the loss of our facility, and it would have taken much longer to reach a settlement.

Sue Schaefer
Board of Hughes County Commissioners

We realized early on that we were ill equipped to devote knowledgeable staff to attend the numerous meetings, scope negotiations, unit cost negotiations, addressing building code issues and many other details that needed to be addressed in order to achieve a satisfactory settlement. We are glad we allowed professionals like you to handle these matters. Thank you for your hard work and decisiveness.

The 2004 hurricane season was a difficult one for Lee County in Southwest Florida. We were fortunate, indeed, to have retained your firm to process FEMA claims following Hurricane Charley. Especially effective was the coordinated approach you used in seeking financial relief from separate sources such as FEMA, FHWA, NRCS and insurance. ...The knowledge needed to deal with FEMA regulations is mind-boggling. It was obvious you and your team are very much up to speed with these regulations, procedures and processes.Without hesitation, we would recommend you and your firm to anyone faced with the task of processing large and/or complex loss claims in a disaster environment. Your firm's ability to bring together the right team of professionals at the right time resulted in the creation of a superior product. Your thoroughness, knowledge, attention to detail, and logical approach provided us with the assurance that we would obtain the maximum reimbursement from all eligible sources.

Mr. Esteves has demonstrated outstanding performance and the ability to organize and lead negotiations. His engagements have been instrumental in permitting the PRPA to reach favorable transactions regarding structural damages at its regional airports and ports facilities resulting from the landfall of Hurricane Maria on September 20, 2017.

Mr. Esteves' strategies and interpersonal skills with the representatives of local and international insurance companies proved essential for handling our claim for the damages caused by the cruise vessel Norwegian Epic, which collided with Pier 3 of San Juan on February 12, 2019.

Mr. Esteves reached a significant agreement with the reinsurers' adjusters for the reconstruction project of Pier 3, which he also help coordinate with our Planning, Engineering and Construction Bureau. Moreover, his knowledge and unquestionable transactional skills allowed us to close the claims for earthquake damages to the Mercedita Airport and the docks of Pefiuelas, Guanica, and Guayanilla in the southern region of Puerto Rico on January 7, 2020.

On behalf of The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, I would like to thank you for the expert advice you provided to me and my staff in our effort to bring the World Trade Center explosion insurance claim to closure. Your expertise and insight in this long and arduous negotiation were invaluable.

Certainly, the tragedy of the World Trade Center explosion will remain etched in our memories forever. We can, however, take pride in the united response of hundreds of people which enabled the complex to be reopened in record time and reconstructed on an expedited schedule. At the same time, as you well know, we were involved in a long, sometimes agonizing process of pursuing settlement activities with insurers. Without your help, and the help of many others the settlement wouldn't have been concluded as successfully as it was.

Months after the storm passed, the County was still faced with tremendous burdens related to the insurance coverage issues and FEMA and MEMA eligibility issues. Jackson County hired Adjusters International to provide professional services for disaster assistance, remediation, restoration and recovery efforts. ...Their expertise with governmental regulations, the complex FEMA process and insurance adjustments resulted in our successful claim for over $2 million in additional FEMA Public Assistance funding specifically; in our successful negotiations with our insurance carrier; and in numerous other increases in the values FEMA and MEMA initially designated for County projects. Jackson County will always be mindful of the help we received from Adjusters International when we needed it most.
