A Panorama City adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough. Los Angeles County is no different. Realistically, denied Panorama City claims are often reopened successfully when proper documentation is supplied the second time. It is the same story on most Panorama City streets. On most jobs, supplements are normal on Panorama City claims once the covering is off and the deck is visible, and they should be raised with evidence rather than argued later.
