Dimont & Associates Celebrates 15th Anniversary

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- What started out as a small operation in an entrepreneur's garage in San Diego has grown to become an industry leader with a staff of 200+ knowledgeable professionals in multiple states all working to maximize mortgagee claims recoveries for their clients.

Dimont & Associates was founded by attorney Bernie Dimont in 1996 when his servicing clients and resulting claims activity had grown so rapidly, he decided to close his law practice to focus entirely on building hazard claims solutions for those clients.

"Over the last 15 years, we have faced many challenges as an industry – hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, fires, and many hurdles still to overcome in the financial markets," said Bernie Dimont, CEO of Dimont & Associates. "This has solidified the relationships we have with our clients as we braved the obstacles together."

Some noteworthy accomplishments over the past 15 years include development of claims tracking software (Eldorado), office expansions, and SAS 70 Type II certification, which confirms the reliability, security and integrity of Dimont & Associates' infrastructure, processes and operations.

Another indication of Dimont's success is the company's expansion from initial Hazard Claims services to a full line of Mortgage Insurance claims processing services including FHA, USDA and VA Post Foreclosure claims services, Freddie Mac & Fannie Mae Reimbursement Claims, Loss Mitigation Claims, and Supplemental Claims. Dimont also has expertise in FHA, Commercial and Multifamily Hazard Claims services and offers Claim Reviews to determine lost opportunities for clients.

Whether responding to disasters, acquisitions and mergers, or sharp rises in the default portfolio – Dimont & Associates is committed to the timely and efficient filing of claims with a strong focus on the recovery of the most money possible while maintaining strict compliance with all state regulations and insurer standards.

"At Dimont, we maintain over 1,400 licenses nationwide," said Rick Hart, COO of Dimont & Associates. "With the mortgage industry under so much scrutiny these days, our clients rest easy knowing that all of their claims are filed legally, per state and federal guidelines."
