Leading Edge Claims Service is excited to be a Gold Sponsor at the National PLRB Claims Conference and Insurance Services Expo in San Antonio this year and will be located in Booth 1247.
We are looking forward to another PLRB and can't wait to interact with our peers and clients after the conference shut downs due to COVID. ![]() LECS is set up for the 2021 TAMIC Convention and Seminar! It is great to be back in Austin after taking a year off during the COVID-19 pandemic. President, Troy Hansen, will be presenting to the TAMIC members tomorrow about the 2021 Texas Freeze! If you are in attendance, stop by and say hi to Troy and our VP of Claims, Blake Mears. ![]() As of 11:00 am, Hurricane Ida is expected to intensify further now to 120mph before landfall. Pressures are falling and Hurricane Hunters are finding the storm structure is improving. Rapid Intensification is likely tomorrow. Ida is tracking almost the same keeping LA and some of MS in the cone. Landfall later Sunday... with feeder bands reaching parts of the Gulf coast throughout Saturday night into Sunday as it approaches. Adjusters are on standby and mobilization to Louisiana is planned. ![]() Tuesday evening, Fred became a Tropical Storm with sustained winds of 40 MPH. Fred is making it's way over the island of Hispaniola today and if it stays intact over this mountainous island, it could re-strengthen quickly due to the warm water around the Bahamas. Leading Edge Claims will continue to monitor Fred as it makes it's way towards Florida. Stay up to date by following LECS on Facebook and LinkedIn or visiting https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/.

Leading Edge is watching the weather in the Atlantic closely as more activity has begun to develop. Invest 94 (in red) has a 70% chance of development in the next two days and has a good chance of developing into a tropical depression or storm later today or tonight. Invest 93 (in yellow) is showing a more southernly route but only a 20% chance of development at this time. To learn more, check out the National Hurricane Center at https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/! As always, make sure your information is up to date by heading over to our website or emailing hr@leadingedgeclaims.com to ensure there will be no delay in potential future deployments! Hurricane season is here, and the tropics are already heating up. Since 2008, Leading Edge has continuously deployed both desk and field adjusters to work residential and commercial claims for TWIA and TFPA year-round. In order to be considered for deployment, TWIA requires that you be certified to work their claims.
For 2021, TWIA has deployed a new Learning Management System which is MUCH more user-friendly than the previous Adobe version. You can now choose the self-paced modules or sign up for webinars to be held in June. If you have not already been contacted and/or enrolled in the new system, please contact dvillanueva@leadingedgeclaims.com to receive an invite and start the process. Certification Requirements:
