About this exhibit

Claims sought the first roof-damage decision

State Farm’s Wind and Hail Claim Handling presentation tells agency leaders not to send customers for a roofer inspection before filing and to let Claims determine whether covered damage exists. Because customers “rarely get on their roofs,” State Farm sought first control of the evidence and the damage decision.

Exact language from Exhibit 19 · filed PDF page 85
