How a Allstate evidence file gets built
A one-hour intake review covers your $95 fee. We then work under contract at $95/hour, client-directed: every adjuster letter, email, recorded statement, and estimate gets read by a human and indexed against your policy and California Insurance Code §790.03. Your attorney gets a citation-backed chronology, contradiction log, and exhibit binder.
Open a Allstate evidence fileAllstate California claims — FAQ
- Allstate's offer is far below my contractor's bid — what now?
- California policyholders aren't required to accept the carrier's initial estimate. We document every line-item gap between Allstate's Xactimate and your contractor's bid, then organize supplements and supporting photos into a record your attorney can use to demand the difference.
- My Allstate adjuster keeps changing — does that matter?
- Yes. California law requires fair and consistent claim handling. Adjuster turnover that resets timelines or restarts document requests is a documented bad-faith pattern; we log each reassignment with dates and what each adjuster promised.
- How long does a Allstate bad faith review take?
- The initial one-hour review covers your $95 fee. Most California Allstate files yield a preliminary chronology within 5–7 business days, depending on volume. Ongoing evidence work is $95/hour under contract.
- Do you give legal advice on Allstate claims?
- No. We are a Legal Document Assistant, not an attorney. We organize and analyze the documentary record so your California attorney can build the bad faith, fraud, or misrepresentation theory.
- What California statute applies to a Allstate bad faith claim?
- California Insurance Code §790.03 (Unfair Insurance Practices Act) and the Fair Claims Settlement Practices Regulations (10 CCR §2695) govern adjuster conduct. We map every documented action against those rules in your evidence file.
