Questions about this form
- Can I attach photos of the damage?
- DocFilla fills the form itself. Attach supporting photos and documents when you submit the claim to the insurer.
- Can my broker send me the claim form to complete?
- Yes. A broker sends the insurer's form with DocFilla; you complete and sign on your phone and the copy returns to the broker to submit.
