The Compact Book of Adjusting Property Claims – Fourth Edition
A Primer for the First Party Property Adjuster
The insurance adjuster is seldom, if ever, mentioned in a policy of insurance. The strict wording of the first party property policy sets the obligation to investigate and prove a claim on the insured.
Standard first party property insurance policies, based upon the more than a century old New York Standard Fire Insurance policy, contain conditions that require the insured to, within sixty days of the loss, submit a sworn proof of loss to prove to the insurer the facts and amount of loss.

Understanding the Terms and Conditions of an Insurance Policy

Similarly, every insurance claim professional when faced with the need to resolve a claim presented by an insured is required to determine if the insurance policy, by its wording, provides coverage to indemnify the insured or does not. To do so the insured and the insurance claim professional must read, understand, and interpret the policy and apply the wording of the policy to the facts determined by the claims investigation.
