Our firm handled 3 major fires. First for Barnes Family (Joe and Pete), then the Morey Organization (Will & Bill Morey). The losses resulted in multi-millions in insurance claims and settlements for buildings, amusement rides, and equipment. We handled losses for 2 generations for the Barnes and Morey families.

Our firm was hired following a fire that completely destroyed the entire pier structure, over 12 major buildings, offices, arcade, and all equipment including a dozen rented tenant occupied stores. The office area contained all the building blueprints. Our team, including an engineering expert, dug through frozen rubble in a 15 foot "crater" in February and found the structural foundation and support members and thus were able to map out and reconstruct the entire complex on computer. We also researched historic municipal archives and found aerial photographs of the complex and used them as well to accurately reconstruct the building on computer within inches of the totally consumed entire square block of this major amusement center. We negotiated a settlement based on our value research for the entire insurance policy limits. The losses were to Building, Contents, Rental Loss, Income Loss, and Special Equipment. The team leader, our president - Anthony T. DiSimone, SPPA, PA, CMI, Senior General Adjuster, was awarded the Nickles Organization Plaque of Merit for the efforts.

The facilities were totally rebuilt including a huge attraction that became the famous national amusement 4 story, Dracula's Castle. A few years later, an accidental fire, started by children playing in the building, caused the Castle to burn to the ground. There was also a series of tenant stores and an apartment lost. Again, our firm, headed by Anthony DiSimone brought in specialists including some of America's leading "Horror Amusement Construction" experts to his team, to value the custom-built animated "horror rooms" and rides, as well as the attached rental stores complex. Again recovery was insurance policy limits. Our experts included Disney Animators, Broadway Production Costume Makers, and renowned horror amusement statue makers.

A third fire, years later, involved the super-structure and a massive indoor amusement "arcade". Again the loss was settled for policy limits. These recoveries were in the millions.

There were 3 other losses handled caused by windstorm and water damage. All were promptly settled by our firm. We also represented the Nickles Family losses to other properties. As with other family owned properties, our firm has handled losses for generation after generation. Our firm is proud of the trust these families have had in our service and the loyalty we enjoy.

Mr. DiSimone has become noted as an expert in Victorian style historic style historic structures having barreled over 150 such structures in that city including some of the most famous structures there including: The Christian Admiral Hotel, The Angel of the Sea B & B, Hotel Alcott, Congress Hall, 410 Bank Street, Virginia Hotel, Merry Widow, and numerous others. Mr. DiSimone had also held a Cape May General Contractors License for several years (as well as Contractors Licenses in other locations).

An extensive fire destroyed part of one of the fiberglass circular treatment section which contained 6 enormous treatment "tumbles". Each is attached to a motorized drive unit in an open concrete "pool". These "units" are the secondary treatment lines in a multi-line sewage treatment processing plant that services several Cape May County Communities including Avalon, Stone Harbor, and Sea Isle City - very important resort based communities on the Jersey Shore. The fire occurred in late spring and the plant shut down during "season" for summer visitors would have created unbelievable chaos and economic catastrophes.

Initially internal inspections were done and it was thought the fire caused minimal damage. Our firm was engaged after interviews by the then Executive Director. Our investigation revealed that not only one turret was damaged, but two others also had extreme heat damage. More important was that the heat from the fire caused concrete "spalling". The investigators and engineers from the insurer questioned the cause and suggested it was natural deterioration. Our firm proved that the steel reinforcement encased in the concrete caused the steel to expand and thus destroyed the entire structure integrity of three sections of an interlocking "pool" system. Instead of some half million in damages, the insurer was forced to pay over $4.5 million. Part of the expense was to expedite temporary repairs and a looming issue of a possible "summer season" shut down.

We have also represented numerous clients who owned properties on National Historic Preservation Certification List for various causes of loss. In order to maintain historic designation, the repairs must be made with replacement materials, design, and other factors that are as close to original as possible. In many cases, component sections are custom "milled" after architectural style drawings are done. There is a very substantial cost involved particularly in replicating with the exact wood materials used.

Mr. DiSimone served on a historic preservation council and is fully aware of what issues exist. He also has held a Cape May City General Contractors License. He also has a professional designation as a Certified Mold Investigator. He has knowledge of structure, damage results, and what effects fire, flood, and contaminations have on buildings and equipment.

A total loss fire destroyed one of the facilities buildings which housed a popular attraction. Our firm was able to expedite settlement and have a new structure built. Our firm received a grateful response from the County Government.

The county and state granted a major fish processor millions to install a new processing plant in partnership with local business suppliers for a major economic facility in the area. The "Elberon Building" is a "multi-acre" size facility. An extensive fire caused extensive damages to a large section of the building. The tenant sought to have the landlord, County of Cape May, repair the building quickly. Our firm was engaged by the County Government and the damage scope was agreed quickly and settlement completed which allowed resumption of service.

A major commercial fishing trailer was docked in the Cape May Area. A fire began in the engine room and destroyed this 80 foot vessel. The insurer had a marine surveyor suggest the vessel had some "salvage". Mr. DiSimone hired an expert, the Norshipco Company of Virginia-the company that actually built the vessel. He had their design engineer inspect and report that the entire vessel was condemned. The insurer was forced to pay total policy limits of $500,000.

*Our firm has handled many vessel losses including power boats, yachts, and sailboats.

This waterfront complex suffered a collapse of a huge section on the entire floor structure during mid-July season and was forced to shut down. In fact several major national news media and T.V. and radio crews arrived for the story as there were hundreds of people in the place. All escaped unharmed. After an exhaustive series of physical investigations by Mr. DiSimone and his engineering experts the cause was found to be a "covered loss" due to hidden decay. Although the insurance company (located in the foreign country of Great Britain) resisted payment, Mr. DiSimone finally got entire policy limits for the settlement for building loss, income loss, and other losses. This was one of 3 major claims at the "2 Mile Inn" that Mr. DiSimone handled. The property has since been rebuilt and reopened.

The Naval Air Station Wildwood is a historic "Air Museum" housed in a World War II original air plane hangar that, through the tireless and selfless efforts of, Doctor Joseph Salvatore, has become a National Attraction and a proud addition to our South Jersey Heritage.

During a particularly heavy snow and ice storm a section of this historic building had a partial roof collapse and sprinkler discharge. Since metal was at a premium during the war, the building was totally constructed of wood. The collapse involved massive wood roof trusses and damage to the hangar door system.

The insurer did an advance payment after our firm submitted a claim but attributed much damage to "pre-existing conditions" after a contentious number of inspections, engineering studies, and collaborations with our own select team of experts. Mr. DiSimone uncovered numerous "flaws" in the conclusions the insurance companies experts had made in their reports. Extensive investigation and securing of photographic evidences and eye witness reports resulted in preparation of a very detailed law suit - one of the few claims that required legal intervention in our firms history. The insurer, one of the largest in the world, was given our evidences and thus decided not to go further with legal defense and rendered a satisfactory settlement.

Our work included securing expert data including the composition and features of the materials used to construct the building - the rare red Douglas Fir. This wood was found by our experts, actually hardens and thus was prized because it resists rot and deterioration as well as moisture. That information and the extensive physical examinations which were extremely difficult to do along the roof structure at some seventy feet off the ground required mobile "cherry picker lifts" and been photographic experts. The dissection of the out-of-state engineering experts reports revealed multiple in accuracy as well as documented false statements and misleading data, which was documented and revealed the insurance companies. Opposing forces finally realized that a jury would see the overwhelming evidence of possible fraud on the part of their experts and thus offered a "handsome settlement" much to the relief of the NASW non-profit organization.

This building suffered severe wind damage. Our firm secured settlement.

The original Whitebrier Restaurant was a very large sprawling restaurant and catering hall. Flooding decades ago caused severe damage. The owner, Anthony Zurawski decided after our firm secured a policy limits settlement to raise the old building and built a new elevated building.

Our firm has handled the most expensive home losses in these two communities. Multi-million dollar losses to buildings, personal property, fine arts, furs, jewelry, swimming pools, landscaping, and other elements require extensive experience, knowledge, and personnel to do the work needed to document all the losses in order to maximize recovery. No other firm in South Jersey can provide these services and none have the knowledge of local construction ordinance, flood plain elevation requirements, municipal regulations, and assist from nearly every local contractor to complete a successful settlement when multi-millions are at stake. Decade after decade, we have handled these losses with excellent success. We also have the knowledge of handling the complexities of condominium losses, where the ownership of units as well as separate ownership of "common areas" by the Condo Association creates a challenge to assign responsibility for repairs (and ownership). Consulting complicated Condo Documents and outer facing with multiple adjusters for insurers requires a very specific knowledge. In fact, we are consulted by professionals and even legal experts for our opinion in such cases. After over 40 years, we have seen every form of ownership from condominium, common ownerships, percentage ownership, and variations that have changed from the original popularity common ownership had back some 40 years ago to more defined sale agreements required by state regulations.

The cast iron "cap" about 18 feet in diameter, projected through two solid brick walls and destroyed a dye laboratory "library" contained over 30 years of dye formulas used in the mills processing. Some of their clients which bought dyed textiles including Samsonite luggage and other national companies relied on this industrial contractor to do their textiles. Part of the Mill company was the American Ribbon Company that manufactured dye ribbon for world wide use. The insurer was reluctant to understand that the dye formulas would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to replicate exactly - as their clients ordered specific colors to match products. Also there was a question as to "repair" or "replace" the boiler. Our firm engaged the company that actually manufactured the boiler, Baltimore Steam Boiler, and had their engineer produce a report condemning the entire boiler system. Our research in both technology, insurance, and information production actually saved these companies and recovered settlements which allowed rebuilding and expansion.

The product, a webbed copper and metal composite was extruded on premises then processed in a harding heat infused device invented by the company for the specific use of this product. The contract for producing the items was part of an international trade agreement and protocol was set in "letters of credits" sign by both the Saudi Arabia government and the U.S. Government. Any delay in delivery would have caused not just a contract default and cancellation but also a tremendous legal liability for Flexible Fabricators under an ominous contract failure provision which involved hundreds of thousands of dollars if default occurred. A. DiSimone Adjustment Bureau expedited the engineering surveys needed to do replication of the machinery needed for this industrial production line, got the industrial clean up needed to salvage rare German metal rods imported and used in the manufacturer and had not just the loss aid but also done so in a timely fashion so adequate repairs and replacements were done to fulfill the Saudi contract and preserve the "important" "letters of credit" and agreements that involved ongoing and future sales.

This historic building, at the edge of the Port Jervis, NY-Matamoras, Pennsylvania Bridge was the original "toll house" for paying tolls to cross back in the 1800's. The newer steel structure became an impediment to the flow of seasonal ice floating down the Delaware River from upstream. During this time "ice flows" of huge size and over five foot thick broke off the shoreline and clogged the river. There was an ice jam at a point several thousand feet down river at the small "Deer Island" (in the middle of the river). The river back up, ice struck the bridge and deflected into the side of the Flo Jean Restaurant.

Huge chunks of ice crashed through the side of the building and flowed into the main dining room floors, the bar, and kitchen, and in the storage rooms below. The frigid water also caused extensive flood damage. There was severe structural damage to the historic structure. The news media surrounding this event (NBC, CBS, ABC, and more) created nationally televised coverage. The NY Governor and the Roman Catholic Cardinal visited the owner of the site, Florence Dalrymple, the "iconic restaurateur".
