When your property is damaged from a covered insurance claim, seeking help from a public adjuster for a property insurance loss involves a few key steps:

1. Research and Selection: Start by researching reputable public adjusters in your area. A great place to start is the Better Business Bureau. These reviews are from actual clients of the business, unlike GOOGLE/YELP, where anyone can leave a review. Look for those with experience handling cases similar to yours and with positive reviews or recommendations from past clients.
2. Initial Consultation: Contact the public adjusters you’re interested in and schedule an initial consultation. During this conversation, they’ll assess your situation, review your insurance policy, and discuss the fee structure and the services they offer.
3. Documentation: Gather all relevant documentation related to your insurance claim, including your policy details, photographs or videos of the damage, estimates for repairs or replacements, and any correspondence with your insurance company. At AJR Public Adjusters, we will request this information after receiving your initial phone call. We then review and assess if our involvement will assist with your recovery. If we feel our assistance can further your claim in a positive direction while making it worth your time/money, we will set up a meeting to finalize our engagement.
4. Engagement: If you decide to proceed, you must sign a contract outlining the terms of the agreement, including the fee arrangement. Make sure you understand all aspects of the contract before signing.
5. Claim Handling: Once engaged, the public adjuster will handle the entire claims process on your behalf. This includes preparing and submitting the claim, negotiating with the insurance company, and advocating for your best interests to ensure you receive fair compensation for your loss.
6. Communication: Stay in regular communication with your public adjuster throughout the process. They should keep you updated on the progress of your claim and any developments that arise. At AJR, we pride ourselves on our constant communication with our clients. Always available to answer questions and provide current information regarding the claim. We have actually had clients in the past requesting less communication; after seeing the thorough job AJR provides, they didn’t want to know every small detail, just wanting to be involved in the large decisions and reap the benefits of our engagement with the final settlement.
7. Resolution: The goal is to reach a favorable resolution to your claim.

Remember, it’s essential to choose a reputable and experienced public adjuster who will work diligently to maximize your insurance claim settlement while minimizing your stress and hassle during the process.

AJR Public Adjusters have the experience of representing clients for over 35 years. With your next claim, give us a call first to speak with us personally about your claim.

We look forwad to hearing from you.
