What Does a Public Adjuster Consider?
Property destruction due to a disaster happens more than you might think. If this has happened to you, you are likely looking to preserve your financial situation as best you can.

What is a public adjuster?
A claims adjuster works for their insurance company while a public adjuster is an unbiased party who does not work for the insurance company. You may receive a more neutral estimate by inviting a public adjuster to assess the damage. In many cases, this may mean you will receive a higher estimate than the claims adjuster initially offers. A public adjuster can also evaluate your policy, prepare your claim, and work towards reaching a more favorable settlement.
What will a public adjuster consider when making an estimate?
Public adjusters are not out to benefit insurance companies. Instead, their job is to make a fair assessment of any damage to your property. Hiring a public adjuster may make a huge difference in the outcome of this process. However, insurance companies may still deny the public adjuster’s estimate. In this case, the public adjuster will likely hire an insurance attorney.
