Benefits of Hiring a Public Adjuster Instead of a Lawyer

Just like attorneys, Public Adjusters also work on a contingency basis. This means both only get paid if they recover a claim on your behalf. The main difference is that Public Adjusters charge 10% for hurricane claims and 20% for all other claims, whereas lawyers charge between 30% - 40% of the total settlement.
Public Adjusters are skilled at estimating the claim, understanding the policy and negotiating settlements. Public Adjusters come to your home, do their own inspections and are with you when the insurance adjuster or other insurance company representative needs to visit the property. Lawyers will generally send a contractor to simply do a rebuild estimate and that contractor doesn't know insurance laws.
Public Adjusters ONLY represent policyholders. Very few law firms primarily focus on First Property Insurance Claims. They generally have several areas of practice.
A Public Adjuster will help the policyholder make a more effective initial claim. A well-prepared claim will increase the chances that a policyholder will receive a fair settlement.

When you hire a Public Adjuster, they should:

Conduct a thorough inspection and evaluation of your loss.
Conduct a comprehensive review of your insurance policy and explain your benefits.
Assist you in complying with your policy’s requirements, such as mitigating further damage and being aware of time limitations.
Document and estimate your damage.
Work with you to develop a proactive claim management strategy that maximizes your financial recovery.
Be your advocate at all inspections and meetings with your insurance company.
Communicate with your insurance company.
Negotiate the best settlement for your claim.
Communicate with you every step of the way.
