Module 4: Public Adjusters

When to hire one and what to know

A Public Adjuster is an independent professional you can hire to negotiate a higher payout if you are struggling to reach a fair agreement with your insurance company.

While they are highly effective at uncovering hidden costs in partial losses, they charge a percentage of your settlement which reduces the total funds available for your rebuild.

Before committing, it is often best to wait for your initial insurance estimate and consider if an experienced contractor could provide the same detailed documentation without the additional fee.
