Well, Loss Assessors are exclusively there to help you and stand shoulder to shoulder with you, the policyholder, to get everything you are entitled to. They are your Professional in the claim process.
Loss Adjusters are the opposite party in the claim process. They are there to protect insurers' financial liability for the claim, seeking ways to pay out the minimum settlement or even refuse the claim entirely which is called a repudiation.
After you have notified your Insurance Company of the incident. Insurance Companies will send in their own professional, called a Loss Adjuster. It might seem like they are there to help, but they are employed and paid for by the Insurance Companies to protect the Insurers' interests.
Their only role is to limit the Insurance company's exposure to cost and investigate the cause of the incident. Additionally, they may interview you and find any possible non-compliance with the policy which might be used to deny the claim. In these scenarios, If you say the wrong thing you risk jeopardising your claim. As a result, your Insurer can repudiate the claim and you could receive nothing.
