Auto Insurance Claims: Insurance claims, storage centers, storage center


Question
After an insurance claim has been paid and closed, how long is the company required, by law, to keep the claim on file?

Answer
Hi Jake,
Most states require that closed claims be kept on file for 7 years, although insurance companies are allowed to move the paper files to storage centers after a 12-36 month time frame.
Once moved to a storage center, it can take 4-6 weeks for retrieval.
I hope this has been of help.
