Experienced Attorneys for Business Income Loss Claims

Business interruption loss, also known as business income loss, is a complex area where expert witnesses often appear for both sides and arrive at wildly divergent opinions about the amount of the loss. Insurance companies have specialized forensic accountants on staff or rely on outside experts who work exclusively in this field. Policyholders who rely on themselves or their personal accountants to compute a business interruption claim are usually outmanned and outmaneuvered.

Rutter & Russin can help your business stay afloat during the difficult time following a catastrophic fire, windstorm loss, or coronavirus / COVID-19 closure by properly investigating and coordinating the presentation of your business interruption claim.


Following a loss, the insurance company hired a forensic accountant to pour over the insured's books and records. This "hired gun" issued a report setting the insured's business income loss at just over $60,000. The insured knew that it had sustained a much more significant loss, but was in a quandary as to how to prove the actual amount. Rutter & Russin, with the help of an experienced forensic accountant, effectively countered all of the arguments raised by the insurance's company expert, and the appraisal panel returned a verdict for the exact amount suggested by Rutter & Russin—just over $2.2 million.
