Founded in 1946, The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International aims to advocate for businesses and homeowners due to the complexity and nature of large insurance claims.

“We’re excited to join the CMTA as it allows us to connect directly with an industry where we have made an impact helping clients who have suffered large losses,” said Grant Staking, Vice President of The Greenspan Co./Adjusters International. “For the past 77 years, we have supported the manufacturing community as professional-loss consultants by helping them prepare, present, and negotiate large insurance claims.
