Harris Balcombe Appoints Business Interruption Specialist – Steven Nock
1st May 2018

Loss assessor and insurance claims consulting firm, Harris Balcombe, has appointed Steven Nock as its technical director and joint head of business interruption.
Working in conjunction with Jonathan Samuelson, Steven will be responsible for managing the growth of the business interruption practice, which is already one of Harris Balcombe’s USPs, but with the added weight of Steven Nock’s expertise it will be seen as a ‘business interruption powerhouse’. He will also lead the firm’s professional qualifications, staff development and help to drive continued growth.
Renowned for his success as a business interruption specialist, Steven Nock brings more than 20 years’ experience to the Harris Balcombe team. He previously worked as a technical expert for RSA plc, then as head of business interruption for both GAB Robins and – more recently – Crawford and Company (UK).
Alex Balcombe, director at Harris Balcombe, said: “Steven’s reputation precedes him and having a loss adjuster of his calibre joining our ranks as loss assessors is a coup for Harris Balcombe and our industry as a whole. We are delighted to welcome Steven into the business. His support will help to build on our work around complex business interruption claims – an area in which the firm is developing an excellent reputation.
“We have seen significant growth over the last five years and have plans to continue on this trajectory. This includes developing our presence in the Midlands, in which Steven will play a significant role. Collaboration is vital, and we believe that by strengthening the quality of our team, we will continue improving the reputation of the industry, and forging greater links within it.”
Steven Nock added: “This is an exciting opportunity, and I am looking forward to becoming part of the Harris Balcombe team – a rapidly growing, highly professional and client-focused business.
“There is vast scope for bringing the skills and knowledge I have to the loss assessing market – representing claimants in their time of greatest need, and really contributing towards better outcomes in the claims process.”
In the Autumn 2018, Nick Balcombe will retire from the business at which point Steven Nock, will take on a role as full equity partner and head of the Midlands office.

John & Karen O'MalleyHigh quality and caring service from Jonathan Ingham at Harris Balcombe.In December 2022, the water tank in our attic burst and flooded our house while we were away for Christmas. We had never made an insurance claim in our lives, and had trusted that the insurance company would take care of everything for us. How wrong we were!! Practically nothing happened for the following eight months, and the house was deteriorating rapidly. We were at the end of our tether.
Fortunately, a friend told us to contact Harris Balcombe. From the moment Jonathan Ingham took over, he was just wonderful. He got the claim moving straight away. He was so supportive and sympathetic, as well as extremely professional and efficient. He always kept us informed of what was happening, and advised us when needed. At such a distressing time, his support and honesty was so comforting to us. We knew that we could trust and depend on him completely. We are so grateful to him for guiding us through such an awful experience. We cannot thank you enough Jonathan, for your caring and sympathetic manner.
We would highly recommend Harris Balcombe.

Rami ClifProfessional and successful loss adjusters...The insurance company were arguing that I was in breach of their contract on several points and i almost gave up on a fire claim. Samantha and her team gave me the reassurance and confidence to keep perusing. Samantha was quick to reply and helped articulate my position as a new to the property business landlord. When under tremendous financial pressure Harris Balcombe came through and argued well for the correct figure needed.
Professional team and support, I highly recommend.

Michael CooperI was so impressed with the management...I was so impressed with the management of my insurance claim . I had a devastating fire in my flat, November 2023 It nearly killed my sister and was the most traumatic event I have experienced in my 74 years alive. This company did a superb job in resolving all the issues . The team was headed by Alex Balcombe and George Holloway dealt with the structural claim and Jonathan Ingram the contents claim They did a great job, supportive and professional and achieved an excellent result . Particular thanks to Jonathan for his compassion and skill in dealing with me when I was at a very low ebb. Thank you all for your support and skill when it was most needed by me.
