He said he could help line up a lawyer to go after the home insurance company (Progressive) and probably get a new roof. The roof is about 10 years old. The lawyer answered the phone call right away and set up a meeting for Friday night. Something like "Your Insurance Lawyer, inc." (can't remember the exact name)

The whole thing sounded fishy as hell to me....but I don't know anything about roofs or insurance. Is this legit?

Thanks!

Apex is a scam outfit. They make a phooey inspection, say there is 25% roof damage, then try to get you to assign insurance claim proceeds to them. You might get a new roof, and you might not.
