Mistakes in Estimating Damage by Your Insurance Company, May Cost You a Fortune
/Your insurance company hires a professional, called an independent adjuster. This adjuster solely represents the interest of your insurance carrier. The name containing the word independent is a bit confusing to most filing insurance claims. The name should be confusing, in that the independent adjuster is only independent from your interest.
As your insurance carrier's independent adjuster looks over your home or business to assess the damage, he/she will often miss critical items. These mistakes in estimating damage by your insurance company can cost you time and money.
"The problem with letting your insurance company be the only one assessing the insured damage to your home or business can be solved by working with a Public Adjusting firm like ours. The old saying that two heads are better than one is true, especially when, as your Public Adjuster, we are representing you, not the insurance company."
