Who are IVAL ?

In a long running Insurance claim with Norwich Union - burglary happened on 2nd January.

They have instructed Crawfords as the loss adjuster. They called out on 23rd July and took eveidence of lost jewelry (original receipts), I had kept broken jewelry boxes and cases but was informed that now as the representative had seen them that I do not need to keep them.

Anyway 3 months later I hear nothing only to find out the person who was dealing with the claim had left and it was just shelved. Also they are saying they do not have the original receipts but will look into this.

They have now also instructed IVAL to value the goods. I do not have any original receipts or the broken jewelry boxes,I only have pcitures I took at the time of the crime (when I got back from holiday)

What can I do?
