Having insurance on your property is not only a legal requirement but it’s also a smart investment for your protection. But often times insurance claims are handled incorrectly and when you need the protection the most you may not receive it. Most likely you’ve heard the horror stories of people, just like yourself, who had property damage beyond their control and had to fight tooth and nail with their insurance company for compensation. Usually to only end up with either a small check or no check at all. This is where a public adjuster may be needed.
A public adjuster is an insurance claims adjuster who advocates for the policyholder in appraising and negotiating a claimant’s insurance claim. When an insurance claim is filed the insurance company sends a claims adjuster to assess the damage. These adjusters are working for the insurance company, not the policyholder, and, often times, assess the damage much lower than it actually should be.
Not sure why you would need a public adjuster? If you have now, or have had in the past, an insurance claim that was either denied or you received a check for much lower than you expected, it may be in your best interest to inquire the services of a public adjuster. If you’ve had flood, wind, fire, or other types of property damage or your property has been vandalized or stolen and are in the process of filing a claim, a public adjuster can help. Even if you’ve already received a settlement check, often times, you can still reopen your claim years later.
