What is a Public Adjuster?

Public Adjusting is a profession that has been in existence for over 125 years, but many homeowners don’t have a clue what a Public Adjuster does or how they may even be in need of their services right now.

As we all know, insurance companies don’t like to pay claims.  Everybody knows somebody personally who has received unfair treatment from their insurance company.  Low-ball settlements, complete denials, improper denial of coverages, and uncaring insurance adjusters can make insurance claims seem like a nightmare for most homeowners.  Many homeowners feel discouraged enough to never file a claim again – and that’s exactly how the insurance companies want you to feel.

A Public Adjuster is an advocate for homeowners and business owners in their property insurance claims.  There are two sides to every story, and when damage occurs to your property, even your insurance agent might recommend that you hire a Public Adjuster to tell your side – because you can be sure that the insurance adjuster, who works for the insurance company, will tell the insurance company’s side of the story if he wants to keep his job.
