This particular case involved fame, celebrity, and high-priced lawyers. Throughout every step of the way, the claims adjuster and the contents specialist worked closely together to ensure a fair settlement.

The case involved a world-famous musical group. The wife of one of the band members claimed that a highly valuable ring – a gift from her husband – had been lost or stolen from a hotel room where they were staying while on vacation.

The ring was a hand-designed piece with a 6.00 carat plus fancy yellow diamond set in the center. The original estimate to replace the ring given by the Beverly Hills jeweler where the ring was purchased was for $145,000.
