AyzerTech Public Adjusters has helped property owners recover 10 times their insurance company’s initial offer.

“A recent client of ours had a fire in her rental home which damaged and destroyed her personal belongings. The client was forced to stay in a hotel for two months while she attempted to handle the claim process on her own. When the insurance company sent her a check for only $2,400, she called me for help,” said Howard Tkatch, Lead Public Adjuster of AyzerTech Public Adjusters. “Once I stepped in, I reopened the claim with her insurance company. I meticulously read through her policy, calculated hotel and living costs, inventoried contents, arranged for a licensed mitigation company to clean any recoverable items and got her a recovery totaling $33,000.”

When disaster strikes your home or business, your first instinct may be to call your insurance company. However, the way you describe the property damage to the insurance company may affect whether your claim will be rejected or how much you will be able to recover. Juggling your insurance claim while trying to run a business or getting on with your life can be overwhelming.

Additionally, some insurance companies may deny or pay out minor sums for property claims in order to limit their payouts.

While the insurance company will assign an adjuster to help resolve the claim, they are acting in the insurance company’s interests.

As a home or business owner you have the right to hire a public adjuster, licensed by the state, to represent your claim. Public adjusters understand the complex details and sometimes difficult to interpret insurance policies. They are experts in the proper procedures for handling claims as well as what the insurance companies are obligated to pay. A public adjuster will represent you.

AyzerTech Public Adjusters are licensed in multiple states and have been successful in negotiating residential and commercial claims of all types. They help people deal with the complex and time consuming details of the claim. When it comes time to negotiate with the insurance adjuster they go to bat for you and can make sure you collect everything you are entitled to. The insurance company is focused on their bottom line, AyzerTech is focused on yours.

AyzerTech is paid a small percentage of the claim once it is collected which is generally more than made up for by the significant increase in recovery. If there is no collection, there is no fee. If you have had any property damage, such as fire, water or smoke, call them for a no-obligation, no-risk consultation.

855-Claim-55 www.ayzertech.com

Success stories: A fire sprinkler burst flooding a client’s warehouse and office space. Initially the insurance company looked for ways to deny it and then eventually offered $36,000.

AyzerTech Public Adjusters ultimately helped recover close to $400,000.

An apartment complex had a small fire in one unit. The property owner underestimated the damage at $50,000. AyzerTech Public Adjusters negotiated a $175,000 settlement.

A commercial property had a sprinkler leak causing mold issues. The insurance company was leaning towards denying the claim completely.

Projected costs to just clean up the site were around $90,000.

AyzerTech Public Adjusters succeeded in getting the claim approved for clean up and rebuilding and recovered over $1,000,000.

You wouldn’t go to court without a lawyer!

Don’t file an insurance claim without AyzerTech Public Adjusters!

Call David 248-739-0346 GETTING TO THE CORE

by Sharon Green, CPT

No matter what your fitness goals are, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll hear a lot about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;core.â&#x20AC;? Where is your core, exactly? If you pointed to your middle, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re partially right. Many people think the core consists only of the abdominals, but the core also includes pelvic muscles, mid and lower back muscles, and even the hip muscles. These muscles work together to support your spine and skull.

An example of core stability is walking on a slope. The body must resist gravity while balancing itself on uneven ground. Initially, it may seem that the legs are the prime movers, but without core strength, the legs will only cause the person to fall over.

Therefore, the prime mover of walking is core stability. Once this is established, this stable core is carried by using leg muscles.

Because many of the bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s movements originate from the core, working toward improving its strength will enhance posture, spinal alignment and stability. Core work is different from strength-training programs that isolate a single muscle group. Instead, they challenge as many muscles as possible in integrated, coordinated movements. Pilates, yoga and swimming are good examples of core training workouts.

Try to make time for three 10- to 15-minute core-strengthening sessions each week. It may be challenging at first, but if you stick with it you will notice an improvement in the way you look, feel and move through your day.

Simply Qualified By: Rabbi Mordecai Kamenetsky

As the book of Exodus begins, it is important to ponder what catapulted Moshe (Moses) from the position of valiant citizen to national leader. The story of Moshe’s youth in Egypt is hardly expounded upon in the Torah. Yes, it tells the story of his birth and his escape in the Nile River. The Torah even mentions his great vigilance in smiting an Egyptian who struck a Hebrew. But in relating those stories, it does not leave us feeling that those acts, merited Divine ordination. It tells the tale of Moshe stopping a fight between two Hebrew fellows, and how he was forced to flee from Egypt to the wilderness of Midian because of his strong stand in chastising those Jews who quarreled. All those stories show perseverance, courage, and fortitude.

Yet not one of those incidents is juxtaposed with the Divine revelation that catapults Moshe into the great spiritual and prophetic leader whom we know.

Even after the event in which he saves Yisro’s (Jethro) seven daughters from evil shepherds G-d is silent, there is no pronouncement of Moses’ glory or appointment of a Divine role. Hashem declares Moshe’s greatness in the context of a very simple serene story.

“Moses was shepherding the sheep of Jethro his father-in-law, he guided them into the wilderness, and he arrived at the mountain of G-d toward Horeb. An angel of G-d appeared to him in a blaze of fire from amidst the bush, and he saw that the bush was burning, and the bush was not consumed. Moshe looked and analyzed the sight and he questioned, “why is the bush not being burned?” (Exodus 3:1-3). It is only in that serene setting that G-d called out “Moshe, Moshe,” to which Moshe replied “Here I am.” The end of that story is the beginning of the Jewish nation.

Why is the act of shepherding sheep the setting for such majestic and Divine revelation? What amazing incident occurred during the shepherding? Why didn’t G-d appear to Moses after his courageous act of smiting the Egyptian or after he reproached two Hebrews who were fighting? Wouldn’t that setting be the ripe moment for induction into the halls of prophecy and leadership?

James Humes, a speechwriter for President Reagan, tells the story about a young recruit who was drafted into the army. During the interview, the sergeant asked him the following question, “Did you have six years of grade school education?”

“Sure thing, Sir”, snapped the recruit. “I also graduated with honors from high school. I went to Yale where I received my college degree and then I did my graduate work at Colombia University, and,” he added, “I received my doctorate in political science at Harvard.”

The sergeant turned toward to the stenographer, smiled, and said, “Put a check in the space marked literate.”

The Midrash tells us that during Moshe’s tenure as a shepherd, one of the sheep ran away. He chased the sheep, he brought it back to the rest of the flock, and he carried it home. G-d looked upon him and said, “A man who cares for his sheep, will care for his people.” That act catapulted Moshe to the position we know.

Acts that are bold and courageous may personify leadership, character, and commitment. People think that they that only those gallant and daring acts that will catapult them into greatness and glory. The Torah tells us that it is not so.

The Torah links Moshe’s selection to Divine leadership with the simple task of shepherding. The qualifications that G-d wants are not necessarily what humans perceive. We often look for honors, accolades, achievements, and accomplishments that are almost superhuman. Hashem, on the other hand, cherishes simple shepherding, He loves care and concern for simple Jews. We may come to Him with risumis of brilliance, of courage, of valor, but He does not need that. He wants consistency, love, compassion, and, perhaps most of all, humble simplicity.

Moshe had those qualities too. It was those qualities of compassion, not the forceful qualities of attacking the Egyptian taskmaster, nor fending off evil shepherds, nor chastising combative Hebrews, that were chosen to cast Moshe into the light of leadership. We may be bold and courageous, but without compassion for the little things, without the humility to find lost sheep, we may be simply overqualified.
