Shemekia Bowens is a claims adjuster for AmTrust Financial Services, a financial services company that offers diverse underwriting portfolios to their clients. She has been a professional claims adjuster for over 16 years, has handled a wide variety of claims, and has helped thousands of clients.

Shemekia joins me today to share the wisdom she’s accumulated as a 16-year insurance adjusting veteran. She shares what made her decide to become a claims adjuster and what made her stay. She explains how you can tell the kind of client you have during the initial call and what you should do to be prepared when meeting them. She also provides tips for those who want to succeed in this type of career.
