About This Scenario
Your upscale hair salon is flooding from a burst pipe in the ceiling, threatening $50,000 in equipment and tomorrow's fully-booked schedule. Your insurance policy has a strict 24-hour claim window, but the fine print suggests calling emergency services could void coverage for 'third-party intervention.'

How It Starts
“Mrs. Martinez, I've received your urgent claim notification at this hour. Before you take ANY further action, I must warn you that policy ST-7249 has very... specific requirements about third-party intervention. One wrong move could invalidate everything. What EXACTLY have you done so far?”
This is how Marcus Chen, Insurance Claims Adjuster's greeting will start.
