Why Hire A Public Insurance Adjuster?
What is a public adjuster?
A public adjuster is a professional claims handler who advocates for the policyholder in appraising and negotiating a claimant's insurance claim.
A "Company" or "independent" adjuster works for the insurance carriers and can only legally represent the rights of an insurance company. They are paid to look out for the best interest of the carrier. A Public Adjuster is hired to level the playing field looking out for the homeowners best interest, settling the highest payout possible based on the buildings policy coverage.
Should I talk to a public adjust prior to my insurance company?
"I always tell people, call me first. I offer free inspections of what you’re dealing with and what you can expect handling it on your own or with YPA representing you. You don’t always need a public adjuster on a claim and I never ask to be hired unless I know for certain that I can add value to your claim settlement. If it’s a simple issue, I offer a recommended clean up company or I sometimes suggest not opening a claim at all." - Leo Yeager, Owner
