Responsibilities

Auto Injury is a customer-facing segment handling bodily injury and uninsured/underinsured claims along with property damage claims involving injuries. The Injury segment is on the cutting edge with the use of analytics to support claim employees in developing enhanced skillsets to support and protect our policyholders. Claims will be tiered within Injury based upon their claim characteristics, complexity, and severity. This could range from non-attorney represented bodily injuries, up to attorney represented and/or litigation claims.

This position is for a field role in which you will have in person assignment(s) claims handling. Examples of in person assignments would be customer facing tasks (such as securing documentation, money, etc) and legal appearances (small claims court, mediations, trials, etc). Once in person assignments are completed, you would then transition to a claim handler for 3rd party liability claims (evaluating, negotiating, and settling claims).

Helping people recover from the unexpected can be one of the most rewarding aspects of the Injury claims position. We empower our claim handlers to take ownership of the customer experience, demonstrate learning agility, apply their knowledge, and lead through the eyes of our customers.


Responsibilities for this role include:

  • Reviewing and analyzing injury claims to determine coverage, liability, and damages
  • Conducting thorough investigations by gathering relevant information, interviewing involved parties, and reviewing supporting documentation
  • Evaluating medical records, police reports, and other related documents to assess the extent of injuries and liability
  • Negotiating settlements with claimants, ensuring fair compensation is provided within policy limits
  • Documenting all claim activities, maintaining accurate records, and preparing reports as required
  • Collaborating with internal teams, including legal, medical, and risk assessment, to ensure proper claim handling
  • Claims employees may occasionally deal with difficult and emotional investigations which include traumatic injury and loss of life
  • Handling may include lawsuits and/or demands as well as working with Attorneys

Where you’ll work:

  • This position is responsible for servicing the location of Mobile, AL.
  • Competitive candidates should reside within a commutable distance of this territory.
  • This is a Remote-Field position in which you will work from home and utilize a mobile office/vehicle for in-person appointments and legal appearances.
  • Hours of operation are continually evaluated and may change based on business need. Successful candidates are able and willing to work flexible work shifts and may be asked to work overtime and/or irregular hours. Candidates may be asked to work outside of their assigned territory as business needs dictates.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's Degree Preferred
  • Claim handling experience as follows is preferred:
    • Bodily injury and property damage liability claims, as well as uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage claims
    • Verification of coverage, legal liability, and extent of damage to persons and property by using knowledge of policies, procedures, laws, statutes, and insurance regulations
    • Litigation experience

Competitive candidates also demonstrate the following:

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong critical thinking and decision-making skills
  • Ability to multi-task across technical platforms
  • Strong organizational and time management skills
  • Effective negotiation skills
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment while also being self-motivated and able to work independently
  • Identification of complexities that may require coordination with independent experts, vendors, or defense counsel

Additional Details:

  • Employees must successfully complete all required training, including applicable licensing exam(s) and background checks required of various state(s).
  • State Farm recently implemented new pre-employment assessments. Candidates that have previously taken an assessment may be asked to participate in additional testing.
