Should You Hire and Use The Services of A Public Adjuster?

Filing an insurance claim for water damage, fire and soke damage or any other insured loss can complex and confusing. Questions about comprehensive valuation, policy language and the insurance claim process can leave more questions than answers. Some claimants find answers and relief with public adjuster services. 

A public adjuster is a certified insurance claim professional who is licensed to work only for claimants, never insurance companies. These claim adjusters manage the claim process and are dedicated to obtaining maximized claim settlements by ensuring the insurance company pays fair value for all damages.

 

Public adjusters can be hired during most stages of the insurance claim process. Some people hire a public adjuster at the onset of a claim to alleviate the time and stress associated with handling a claim. Other people engage a public adjuster after receiving a low settlement offer or a denial.

Public adjuster services can vary depending on the type of claim and when the adjuster is hired. Most service agreements include comprehensive damage estimates, on site meetings with the insurance company, ongoing claim tasks, substantiating documentation, communication with the carrier as well as final settlement negotiations. In most cases, hiring a public adjuster can speed up the claim process to settlement.
