We thoroughly vet each company to ensure their licensure, insurances and performance record meet our standards. We then assign the Best in Class network provider(s) to handle evaluation and repairs based on location, capacity and metrics set in collaboration with each insurance company including, cost, cycle time, quality and customer service. 

Hancock Preferred Repair Network Program Managers follow proven communication processes leveraging our technology and their repair expertise to help close claims quickly and accurately.

From water mitigation services to electronics repair, it’s rare to request contractor or other vendor assistance that falls outside of the scope of Hancock’s Preferred Repair Network. If an insurance carrier or claims adjuster happens to find themselves in that unique situation, we can problem solve together to navigate a speedy solution.

Hancock Claims Consultants holds itself and every vendor it enlists to work with our customers to a rigorous standard of excellence. Our vetting process provides strong assurance vendor complaints will be a non-issue for all parties involved.

We’ll never force a carrier to work with providers they are not comfortable with.

Regardless, we understand issues and escalations will arise. This is where we seek to differentiate ourselves and provide fast, transparent, and effective issue resolution. Our team will immediately acknowledge the issue, gather facts from all parties and work to facilitate the best outcome possible.
