$7 MILLION RECOVERY FROM IMPROPERLY REJECTED CLAIM

CLIENT PROBLEM

CACM SOLUTION
  • CACM immediately challenged this determination and presented our calculations to the claims administrator.
  • After repeated back and forth with the claims administrator and class counsel, the claims administrator discovered that it had made an error in its calculation and confirmed CACM's recognized loss calculation.
CACM RESULTS
  • CACM's client's claim of over $7 million was accepted and paid by the claims administrator.
  • Additionally, the claims administrator corrected the error in its calculations resulting in the acceptance of numerous previously improperly rejected claims being accepted and paid by the claims administrator.
