Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), a leading global business services
company that supports, protects, and connects major consumer
purchases, has opened mobile claims support sites for Southern
California policyholders affected by the devastating wildfires
across the region. In addition to being able to quickly and easily

at Assurant mobile claims sites in Burbank and Santa Monica.
Assurant representatives will be on-site to offer customers
in-person assistance to quickly file a claim.
“We are deeply committed to helping our customers, colleagues,
and communities impacted by the devastating California wildfires,”
said Francesa Luthi, executive vice president and chief operating
officer at Assurant. “Our priority is to support our Southern
California-based employees and ensure policyholders can easily file
a claim and receive critical claims support. Assurant’s new mobile
claims sites will offer customers expert, in-person support on
their path to restoring property and peace of mind. As part of
Assurant’s long history supporting communities where we serve,
live, and work, the Assurant Foundation is proudly donating to the
American Red Cross California Wildfire Relief efforts, the
California Community Foundation, and the California Fire Foundation
to aid community recovery efforts in the greater Los Angeles
area.”
In addition to providing adjusters on the ground to support
customers in person, Assurant also enables policyholders to receive
electronic payments, ensuring affected customers quickly receive
the resources they need to begin recovery. For policyholders in the
area who have not filed claims, Assurant is proactively contacting
them with information to support filing a claim, which
includes:
- Online at assurant.com/disaster-support
- By phone at 1-800-358-0600, 24 hours, seven days a week

Assurant is also focused on supporting its Southern
California-based employees to ensure their safety, including paid
time off, access to the company’s Employee Assistance Program for
help in managing trauma and stress, and emergency financial
assistance to aid in recovery from the Assurant Cares Employee
Support (ACES) Fund, which is an independent charitable
organization established in 2017 to assist employees impacted by
natural disasters.
As part of Assurant’s commitment to help communities impacted by
wildfires, the Assurant Foundation is donating $150,000 to the
American Red Cross. Since 2016, Assurant has supported the American
Red Cross with grants and matching gifts of more than $2 million to
assist in disaster relief efforts and is a member of its Disaster
