From water backups, ice dams, and snow runoffs in the basement to windstorms, fires, and floods that can cause much more damage, Beth Pearson has seen it all. “We have a tremendous amount of experience with these events and have helped educate clients on snow and water-related coverages,” said Pearson, president of Pearson Wallace Insurance in Amherst and Pittsfield. “Then we get involved in the claim remediation and act as a liaison between the company, the carrier, and the client, and make sure it’s an easy process to expedite the claims payouts.”
