What is Appraisal: Appraisal is a Policy Provision found in most insurance contracts under the Loss Settlement section.  It is an Alternate Dispute Resolution, which provides a mechanism to settle disagreement when the Carrier and Policyholder do not agree on the amount of loss. It is an alternative to slow and expensive litigation. Appraisal is not the venue to address coverage issues with a policy but rather to negotiate a repair methods, costs, and expenses that will return a commercial or residential property to a pre-loss condition. Appraisal removes the emotions from the settlement process allowing for an objective fact based resolution. Appraisal is as relevant on smaller losses as it is on the multi-million dollar losses.
