Ed Cross "The Restoration Lawyer" and Bill Loveland, Found of Xactware (creators of Xactimate) - square off on stage at the Restoration Industry Association's (RIA) 2019 Fire Summit.   

Even though Bill landed what many perceived to be an incendiary blow when he said, "If you have an argument with an adjuster about what they're going to pay, you're not much of an estimator." He also expressed that he and Xactware are committed to working with RIA and restoration contractors to improve the process.
