Insurance Fraud Investigation Services | The Dillon Agency

Insurance fraud involves any act committed with the intent to deceive an insurance company for financial gain. In Tennessee, this can manifest in various forms, including false claims, inflated claims, and staged accidents. The implications of insurance fraud are far-reaching, affecting not only the insurance companies but also honest policyholders who face higher premiums as a result.

Common types of insurance fraud include:

1. False Claims: Submitting claims for damages or losses that never occurred.
2. Staged Accidents: Deliberately causing accidents to claim insurance money.
3. Inflated Claims: Exaggerating the value of a legitimate claim to receive more compensation.



Understanding these types of fraud is essential for both consumers and businesses to protect themselves from potential losses.

Our investigative techniques are designed to be both effective and discreet. We utilize:

• Interviews: Conducting interviews with claimants, witnesses, and involved parties to gather information.
• Data Analysis: Analyzing claim data to identify patterns that may indicate fraud.
• Field Investigations: Performing on-site investigations to verify the legitimacy of claims.

These techniques help us build a comprehensive picture of the situation, allowing us to make informed conclusions about the validity of claims..

Types of Insurance Fraud We Handle

At The Dillon Agency, we specialize in various types of insurance fraud investigations, including:

Workers' Compensation Fraud

Workers' compensation fraud is one of the most costly and frequently occurring forms of insurance fraud in Tennessee — and one of the hardest to prove without professional investigative support. The Dillon Agency conducts covert surveillance operations to document claimants who are misrepresenting the severity or nature of a workplace injury. Our licensed investigators gather photo and video evidence of physical activities that contradict reported disabilities, capturing documentation that is legally defensible and admissible in administrative hearings, depositions, and court proceedings. Employers dealing with repeated or suspicious claims may also benefit from a broader corporate fraud investigation to determine whether organized fraud is occurring within their workforce. Whether the claim involves a soft tissue injury, a claimed inability to work, or suspicious patterns across multiple claims, we build the factual record your legal team and insurance carrier need to challenge fraudulent payouts and recover costs.

Personal Injury Fraud

Staged accidents, exaggerated injuries, and fabricated medical treatments represent a significant and growing drain on insurance carriers across the country. The Dillon Agency investigates suspected personal injury fraud by conducting field surveillance, verifying reported limitations against documented behavior, and cross-referencing claimant activity with medical records and treatment timelines. Our investigators are experienced in identifying inconsistencies that signal fraud — including claimants who are observed performing physical tasks well beyond their stated restrictions. We deliver organized, timestamped evidence packages that give defense attorneys and claims adjusters a clear, factual foundation for disputing inflated settlements and exposing fraudulent injury claims before they reach a jury.

Property & Casualty Fraud

From inflated damage estimates to entirely staged losses, property and casualty fraud schemes are increasingly sophisticated — and increasingly expensive. The Dillon Agency supports insurance carriers, independent adjusters, and self-insured businesses in Tennessee by investigating suspicious property claims that show signs of manipulation, misrepresentation, or deliberate staging. Our investigators examine the circumstances surrounding reported losses, document inconsistencies in claimant accounts, identify prior claim patterns, and gather third-party witness information that adjusters alone cannot access. Whether the claim involves a vehicle, commercial property, or residential loss, we provide the independent investigative perspective needed to separate legitimate claims from fraudulent ones before settlement decisions are made.

Disability Claim Fraud

Long-term disability fraud places an enormous financial burden on insurance carriers and self-insured employers alike — particularly when claimants receive benefits for conditions they no longer have, or never had to the degree reported. The Dillon Agency conducts extended surveillance operations designed to document the true functional capacity of disability claimants over time. Our investigators observe and record daily activities, employment, physical exertion, and social behavior that contradict the degree of impairment stated in medical documentation. We work in full coordination with your legal and claims teams, delivering thorough activity logs, high-quality video evidence, and written investigative reports that meet the evidentiary standards required to modify, suspend, or terminate fraudulent disability benefits.

Life Insurance Fraud

Life insurance fraud takes many forms — from falsified death claims and beneficiary schemes to policy applications built on material misrepresentation. The Dillon Agency assists carriers and legal counsel in investigating suspicious life insurance claims where the circumstances surrounding a death, disappearance, or policy application raise legitimate concerns. In many cases, a thorough background verification conducted at the time of application would have flagged the misrepresentation before a policy was ever issued."Our investigators conduct discreet background research, interview witnesses, verify timelines, and identify inconsistencies between reported facts and documented evidence. When beneficiaries or policyholders have provided false information — whether at the time of application or at the time of a claim — we build the investigative record needed to support claim denial, recovery of fraudulent payouts, or referral for criminal prosecution.

Each type of fraud presents unique challenges, and our experienced team is equipped to handle them effectively.
