American National urges severe weather safety

American National has claims teams on standby in
the event policyholders experience severe weather-related claims.
For personalized service, policyholders can visit their local
agent’s office or call American National’s 24-hour claims hotline
at 1.800.333.2860. Those with access to a computer or smartphone
can also report claims online through the “Client Services Online”
feature of AmericanNational.com.
If property damage does occur, American National
encourages policyholders to wait to make repairs until an adjuster
can complete a property inspection. If immediate action is
absolutely necessary to prevent further damage, make sure it’s safe
to make repairs and take time to thoroughly document the damage.
All repair-related receipts should be saved so they can be included
in claim reports. For those policyholders who sustained vehicle
damage, appraisers will be available to assist with
inspections.
American National’s website also offers several
informational resources that may be useful to policyholders dealing
with the aftermath of weather events. Information specifically
related to severe storm preparedness and recovery can be found at
www.anpac.com/safety.
