Since 2011, Appraise Your Claim has helped homeowners and business owners recover what they're rightfully owed by properly documenting losses, establishing the full scope of repairs, and negotiating fair insurance claim settlements.
Claims are negotiated. Experience matters.
Three recent settlements — a demand appraisal, a new claim where AYC was retained from the beginning, and a claim reopened after it had already been settled. Different situations, same goal: every dollar the policy owes.
+78% over the carrier’s initial offer
When the dispute is the amount — not the coverage — the insured invokes the policy’s appraisal clause and retains Felice as their named appraiser.
Retain AYC immediately and the claim starts on your terms — set the tone early, before the carrier sets it for you.
+30% over the initial offer, after the claim had been settled
Already settled? AYC reopens the file and re-negotiates the claim — with a fee on the new money only.

A master carpenter who learned the insurance business—then dedicated his career to helping policyholders.
Felice began his insurance career in 2003 when a major insurance carrier recruited him for his construction expertise. As a field adjuster, he inspected losses, evaluated damage, and developed repair scopes for residential and commercial property claims.
That experience gave him a unique perspective on both sides of the claims process. More importantly, it showed him how valuable it is for policyholders to have an experienced advocate who understands construction, insurance policies, and claim valuation.
In 2011, Felice founded Appraise Your Claim with a simple mission: to help homeowners and business owners receive the full benefits they're entitled to under their insurance policies.
Today, clients know him for his honesty, accessibility, attention to detail, and relentless commitment to properly documenting every loss.
At Appraise Your Claim, we believe every policyholder deserves to be treated fairly, honestly, and with respect.
When disaster strikes, you shouldn't have to become an insurance expert overnight or battle through a complicated claims process alone. That's our job.
Our promise is simple:
We will treat your claim as if it were our own.
Whether residential or commercial, our mission never changes:
Protect your interests. Document your loss. Maximize every dollar you're entitled to under your policy.
From the first inspection to the final settlement, we are committed to documenting every loss thoroughly, interpreting your policy accurately, and presenting your claim professionally. We don't cut corners, inflate damages, or make promises we can't keep. Instead, we rely on experience, construction expertise, attention to detail, and a relentless commitment to restoring your property to its pre-loss condition whenever coverage allows.
We believe insurance companies should honor the promises they made when they sold the policy. When they don't, we advocate for our clients with integrity, professionalism, and persistence.
Communication is just as important as results. You'll always know where your claim stands, what we're doing on your behalf, and what comes next. We answer the phone, return calls, and remain available throughout the entire process.
That's not just our business. That's our promise.
…including smoke, lightning, tree fall, vandalism & sewage backup. If it's a covered peril, we'll pursue it.
Whether you're reporting a new loss, navigating a complicated claim, or challenging an underpaid or denied claim, we manage the entire process from start to finish—protecting your interests every step of the way.
Claims are negotiated. Experience matters.
