Harmon Solutions Group (HSG), a leading independent Third Party Administrator providing auto and property claim administration services, announces the addition of a key executive to their senior management team. Gary Turner has joined HSG as Vice President, Property Sales.

Mr. Turner comes to HSG with a broad and diverse background in the insurance industry, including in-depth experience in property claims management and restoration services. Most recently, Mr. Turner was co-owner of a property restoration and salvage services business working with key insurance and commercial accounts.

Prior to becoming a business owner, Mr. Turner gained a wealth of experience by working for two years as an Executive Vice President for Glass America/Cars Collision and eleven years in various positions of responsibility for Vistar Auto Glass (formerly Globe US Auto Glass, Inc), finishing his tenure as Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

In his new position, Mr. Turner will be responsible for marketing HSG’s one-of-a-kind claims platform designed for handling property claims at every step of the claim cycle. HSG takes the first notice of loss (FNOL) on behalf of their insurance clients, enabling the insurance carriers to substantially lower their administrative costs, while delivery a superior and unprecedented level of service to the claimant.

HSG also has the ability to verify coverage and immediately connect the claimant with one of its network members, thereby mitigating the loss much sooner than traditional claim administration methods. Restoration contractors can participate in the program free of charge, provided they meet certain minimum requirements.

"We are very excited to have such a talented individual as Gary Turner join our senior management team.” said Paul Gross the President of HSG. “The feedback we have received to this program from both insurance companies and restoration vendors has been extremely positive. I have no doubt that with Gary’s leadership we will continue to lead the industry in the property claims business.”
