Which type of claim involves assessing a loss due to theft?

A claim that involves assessing a loss due to theft is specifically categorized as a burglary claim. This type of claim addresses situations where items are stolen from a location, such as a home or business, typically by breaking and entering. When an insured individual files a burglary claim, they provide evidence of the theft, such as a police report or documentation of the stolen items.

In contrast, a comprehensive claim usually pertains to auto insurance and covers losses due to non-collision-related incidents, such as natural disasters or vandalism. A liability claim relates to situations where the insured is held responsible for causing injury or damage to another party. Property damage claims can include a range of issues that affect physical property but do not exclusively focus on theft, encompassing damages from accidents, natural disasters, and other causes. Therefore, the burglary claim is the most accurate description for assessing losses specifically tied to theft.
