Davies North America

At Davies, we believe the work we do every day has the power to make a lasting impact—and sometimes, it’s the simple act of showing patience, professionalism, and understanding that means the most to our customers. Recently, Eric Wercholuk, one of our Independent Adjusters in Georgia, helped a policyholder navigate a hurricane claim in Angleton, Texas. Despite the challenges of coordinating busy schedules, Eric remained patient and professional throughout the process, ensuring the inspection was thorough and every question was answered. The policyholders were so impressed by his dedication and care that they reached out to let us know how much they appreciated his work, calling it “fantastic” and “thorough.” It’s stories like this that remind us how powerful consistent, considerate service can be. Kudos to Eric for exemplifying the Davies standard of excellence!
