Meghan Bowers/ Enterprise Rent A Car

I have been using Greentree for over 3 years now and they have always been available when needed and responsive to all inquiries.  They make it easy for my adjustors to send files over online and are prompt on sending out the payments.  We have seen great results from their services.

Let me know if you need anything else.

 Clint Haskell

Subrogation SupervisorEnterprise Rent-A-Car Company of Los Angeles

After having been in the insurance claims profession for almost 40 years, I have had many experiences with collections and subrogation companies, some good, some not so good.

I can state that your company has done an outstanding job for my property claim department.  Your reports are timely and contain the information needed to inform us of what is going on with our claims.  The efforts of your collections department are very good and much appreciated.
