Colonial Welcomes New Senior Auto Adjuster

Michael O’Hara, API, AIC
Senior Auto Adjuster

Mike joins Colonial’s auto adjusting team with 23 years in the insurance and adjustment fields. He began his career handling auto claims with a national insurance agency, and quickly progressed to the role of adjuster. He spent many years as a multi-line adjuster, consistently handling a large volume of claims in a fast-paced environment. Within his previous roles, he also served as the liaison between insureds and adjusters to ensure positive claims outcomes for insureds, as well as developing independent adjuster guidelines and overseeing the body shop program. He has owned his own adjusting firm, and served as an independent auto appraiser.

Mike is excited to return to his roots as an auto adjuster. He likes the pace and flow of auto adjusting, managing the myriad of variables involved, and the importance of expediting auto claims to achieve results quickly. Mike’s extensive background in all the facets of insurance claims adjusting, as well as leading customer-centered programs, makes him a strong addition to our Auto Adjusting Division.

He is licensed in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, and will be handling auto claims from his residential office.

Mike lives in Barre, Vermont with his wife, Karen, and their teenage daughter who is a serious softball athlete. As well as being a sports enthusiast himself, his weekends are often spent at the softball field or indoor training facility with his daughter, and they enjoy outdoor activities as a family.

Please join us in welcoming Mike to the Colonial family! He can be reached at 800-445-2330 Ext: 111 and mohara@colonialadj.com.
