Does using a public adjuster increase payments?


In a recent study, the Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability discussed the value of using a public adjuster, and it showed that claims where adjusters were used had increased payments.

The study (which can be found by clicking here) shows how important and valuable it is to use public adjusters. Company adjusters work on behalf of insurance companies, while public adjusters work on behalf of policyholders.

Another important part of having a public adjuster on your side is that he or she will handle all aspects of the claims process from beginning to end, and policyholders will receive a full explanation of coverage, loss and insurance company claim requirements.
