About

As a former claims handler and fraud investigator, Jason Metz has worked on a multitude of complex and multifaceted claims. The insurance industry can be seemingly opaque, and Jason enjoys breaking down confusing terms and products to help others make well-informed decisions.

Jason Metz first started in the insurance industry in 2007 as a claims handler before accepting a role as a fraud investigator. He has handled a wide variety cases from simple rear end accidents to stolen cars and missing jewelry to an intricately-webbed fraud ring.
