What this site is
Insurance Claims Tips is an independent editorial resource focused on water damage, restoration, mold prevention, and insurance topics relevant to California residents. The content is written for homeowners who need substantive information rather than marketing copy.
Editorial standards
Articles are written from working knowledge in the field and reviewed against current California regulations, federal agency guidance (EPA, FEMA, CDC), and industry standards from bodies like the IICRC. Primary sources are linked throughout for verification. The site is editorially independent of any single restoration contractor or insurance carrier.
Author
Former insurance adjuster turned consumer-side writer. Twenty-two years in California claims work before moving to editorial.
