We also offer a wide range of expanded professional catastrophic emergency services, including our Nationwide Catastrophe Response program, pursuant to which, in connection with major catastrophes, such as a major hurricane or earthquake, we provide resource management and coordination of a network of pre-qualified firms. We will also assist clients in complying with the financial procedures required for acceptance of their claims by federal government agencies and insurance providers.
Over the last few years, a series of major catastrophic events have forced businesses and communities to carefully consider their disaster preparedness. From the series of hurricanes in 2005 that caused over $23 billion in insured damages to the singular $96 million damage wreaked by Hurricane Katrina in 2006, corporations know they cannot be found unprepared.
