What is a Public Adjuster?

A Public Adjuster, an independent insurance professional, assists policyholders

(homeowners or business owners) in settling insurance claims to ensure fair treatment and optimal recovery. Functioning as a quarterback in the complex claims process, a Public Adjuster helps navigate potential obstacles and pitfalls. With a professional license to decipher insurance policies, a Public Adjuster advocates solely for the interests of commercial and residential policyholders, not the insurance companies. Crucially, a Public Adjuster is the sole type of claims adjuster authorized to legally represent the insured during the claim process. Negotiating tirelessly, a Public Adjuster aims for maximum settlement to restore policyholders to their pre-loss condition effectively. It's important to note that a Public Adjuster is distinct from a contractor and does not perform any work.

Why do I need a
Public Adjuster?

When you file an insurance claim, your insurance company assigns an adjuster to assess the loss. Their role is to represent the insurance company's interests. At Florida Public Insurance Adjusters, our mission is to prioritize your best interests. We aim to balance the scales and advocate on your behalf, not for the insurance company. Our adjusters handle the preparation, filing, and negotiation of maximum dollar settlements for your insurance claim. Think of a Public Adjuster as you would an accountant for taxes. Professional representation significantly increases the likelihood of a favorable outcome.
