What is a public adjuster?


Written by: Sill Public Adjusters


What is a public adjuster?

A public adjuster is an insurance industry professional who can offer insurance claim help to property owners. We can negotiate with your insurance company on your behalf to settle large claims faster.

Hiring a public adjuster means a licensed insurance claims professional will handle your claim throughout the insurance claims process.

A public adjuster helps property owners and looks for their best interests, not the insurance company's. A private adjuster will get the property owner the claim settlement they deserve.

Your insurance company may seem nice when you choose your coverage, but they become your enemy when you make a claim. The insurance company hires adjusters to protect their interests. Isn’t it prudent that you do the same?

In October 2018, Hurricane Michael slammed into Florida, causing extensive damage. A property ownership group called Arbor Properties saw significant damage to three apartment buildings near Panama City, Florida.

More than 850 apartment units suffered varying degrees of wind and water damage.

"The bottom line is that this huge claim was resolved in fairly short order, with adequate funding being issued along the way, which allowed us to rebuild quickly. This made the city happy as we are the largest housing source, " said Gordon Thames, Arbor Properties, Inc.
