Which description best fits the All Lines Claims Adjuster 6-20 role?

• A. Investigates, Evaluates, and Negotiates Claims
• B. Writes policies
• C. Appraises property
• D. Provides underwriting guidance

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that an All Lines Claims Adjuster handles the full claim process across various lines of business, focusing on the three core activities: investigating the loss, evaluating what the policy covers and how much is owed, and negotiating a settlement. Investigating means gathering facts, interviewing involved parties, reviewing police or medical records, and identifying liable parties. Evaluating involves applying the policy terms to determine coverage, liability, and the amount of loss, often using estimates, appraisals, or expert opinions. Negotiating covers working with the insured or claimant to reach a fair settlement while following company guidelines and legal requirements.

The other options describe tasks outside the typical claims adjuster scope: writing policies is the realm of underwriting or policy issuance; appraising property can be part of some claims processes but is not the central, ongoing duty of an All Lines adjuster; and providing underwriting guidance is not within the adjuster’s role.
