Arizona Contractor Ordered to Stop Acting as an Adjuster Without a License

May 11, 2011

Arizona building contractor, True-Built Construction, LLC owned by Weston Farnes, was given a cease and desist order to stop acting as an insurance adjuster without a license, according to the Arizona Department of Insurance (ADOI).

Authorities reported that Farnes had his homeowner client sign an “Authorization” form which stated that he was representing the homeowner in negotiations with the insurance company, “to obtain full reimbursement under the terms of [her] policy for a property damage claim.”

Arizona insurance law requires any person who “adjusts, investigates or negotiates settlement of claims” to have a license from the ADOI.
