claims adjuster
A person who investigates insurance claims in order to determine the liability of the insurance company.
Never had to make an insurance claim in my life, so this is new to me. Thanks!
Plus you have the etymology:
from Latin ad (“to, up to, towards”) + iustus (“correct, proper, exact”) + er (one whose occupation is the root noun; a person characterized by the root)So like, “one whose occupation is to add and extract proper justice.”
Reads more like “One who advances towards what is correct and proper” to me.
He adjusted the structure of the man’s skull
