What others are saying
"Highly recommend this"
"This class has so much information it will actually change how you inspect, talk to adjusters and additionally prepare if they activate an engineer."
- John Senac
"Mat's Engineer Class is Top Tier"
"I have been in the insurance industry for 30 years, and there are only a handful of people that have impressed me with their knowledge and professionalism. One of them is Mat Mulholland. I have taken his Engineer Class and it is Top Tier! Mat walks you through his thought process to get to a point, he acknowledges what opposing folks may say, so you can be prepared! Super important! I wish I had billions of dollars because I would send all policyholders advocates to Mat's class on my dime. Dead serious..."
- Wesley Barber
