Carla Longton
@carlalongton
Auto claims adjuster specializing in liability, coverage investigations, and customer-focused resolution.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Auto Claims Adjuster with over four years of progressive experience investigating and resolving automobile liability, property damage, and bodily injury claims from first notice of loss through resolution.
I focus on liability and coverage investigations and determinations, interpreting policy provisions to make coverage applicability decisions. I also handle recorded statements, comparative negligence, subrogation, total loss coordination, and claims documentation while communicating clearly with customers and stakeholders.
I’ve managed high-volume caseloads using tools including Guidewire (i-Now/KCC), Stingray, ImageRight, CCC, Accurint, TLO, ISO, and Arbitration Forums (E-Subro). Recently, I was selected to join a specialized rapid-response claims team to reduce a substantial backlog of automobile liability claims while supporting ongoing claim operations.
I coordinate effectively with appraisers, repair facilities, body shops, vendors, and internal teams to keep claims moving in compliance with company guidelines. I hold an active Florida 6-20 All-Lines Adjuster License and an active Florida Notary Public, and I also bring experience as a Spanish interpreter for unemployment hearings.
