David Alvarez, National General Adjuster, joined Engle Martin’s Charlotte, North Carolina office in 2006 and was later promoted to Branch Manager.

Philip Ambrose, Executive General Adjuster, has relocated from Engle Martin’s Dallas, Texas office to the Tampa, Florida location. Ambrose has over twenty years of adjusting experience with a national insurance carrier, and his expertise includes commercial property, business interruption, inland marine, builder’s risk and catastrophe losses.Ambrose is also flood certified through the National Flood Insurance Program, adding another level of expertise to Engle Martin’s coverage in Florida.
