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!

Eating Your Way To Self-Esteem: A Jewish Perspective

By Leah Kohn

With Guest Author: Michal Silverstein For better or worse, food is an important part of American culture. “Power-lunch”, black-tie fundraiser, birthday party, bar/bat mitzvah, wedding and the like, all focus to varying extents around what is served.

Food brings pleasure, but it can also cause pain. Beyond legitimate health concerns, many of us live in mortal fear that what we put into our mouth will find its unflattering way onto our figure. Studies report that Americans spend more than $34 billion a year on dieting and diet-related products – roughly equivalent to what the U.S. Government spends on education in the same period! Inanimate as it is, food can control our life.

The media convince us that if only we would lose weight, we’d be perfect. Women’s magazines promote this craze with cover headlines such as, “Why We Crave French Fries…” (Redbook, Feb. ’00); “Drop 5 pounds This Month…No Diet!” (Shape, Feb. ’00) and “Burn Fat Faster at 25, 35, 45” (Mademoiselle, Jan. ’00). In spite of their encouraging, friendly tone, today’s “get-thin-quick” headlines imply that we’re not good enough as we are.

Food has invaded more than our bodies. It affects our sense of self – while the bathroom scale has become a barometer of self-esteem. With such an unforgiving arbiter of success or failure, it’s no wonder some continue to lose weight beyond reason, disciplining themselves onto the path of eating disorders and food addiction. Somehow, we have lost our ability to discern appearance from depth, body from soul. The perception of our inner essence can be distorted by our attachment to physical ideals unattainable by most.

We chase beauty trends created by corporate executives who make billions by convincing us that appearance is connected to spiritual well-being.

The truth is that the soul also needs to eat. Self-esteem and a healthy attitude towards food start with acknowledging this reality. While we need to eat in order to survive – and can enjoy doing so – the Torah tells us that man does not live by bread alone. In other words, food should not be an end unto itself, but rather a tool for spiritual growth. G-d instilled in us an ongoing need to eat as a means of motivating us to use the physical world to nourish our innermost self. All Torah commandments related to food are intended to create a pathway from the dinner table to the Divine. This point of view casts new light on the prominent role of food in Jewish tradition. Lox and bagels, chicken soup, matzoh and latkes are not only stereotypes, but also delicious-tasting, authentic opportunities to elevate one’s soul!

Judaism’s spiritual attitude towards food can be traced to Avraham and Sarah, who were renowned for their gourmet meals and the warmth of their home. When guests thanked them for their hospitality, Avraham and Sarah directed their thanks towards G-d, the Ultimate source of our gratitude. Then as now, the link between a Jew and the Divine can be facilitated by physical means such as the food we eat. This connection to G-d engenders a sense of purposefulness in our lives that is at the heart of true self-esteem. By recognizing that the core of our existence transcends size and shape, we begin to establish a healthy relationship with food and a reverence for the manner in which we eat. In doing so, we acknowledge that our life force comes not from the physical aspect of eating right, but ultimately from the spiritual nourishment it provides.

A healthy attitude towards food can promote a sense of enjoyment in eating and can be instrumental in maintaining the right relationship between body and soul. Of course, this is not easy. Unrealistic commercial ideals of how we should look restrict the expression of each individual’s spiritual beauty. In spite of these obstacles, a Jew may achieve a sense of well-being and stability, by eating according to what the Torah teaches and observing the commandments related to food. The practices of kashrut, recitation of blessings before and after eating, ritual hand washing and fasting on Yom Kippur – to name a few – reflect the Torah’s sensitivity to the potential spiritual usefulness of food in our lives. Our challenge as Jews is to maintain an awareness of the Divine spark in every aspect of our physical existence, including what we eat. The ensuing self-esteem is calorie-free and leads to the revelation that G-d alone creates and sustains life.
