What is a public adjusting company and do I need to hire one if I have a claim?
A public adjusting company is a business that will represent you for a fee in presenting a claim to your insurance company. The fee is deducted from any loss settlement paid. These companies are very aggressive in soliciting your business and have no relationship with your insurance agent or insurance company. Your Independent Insurance Agent and Preferred Mutual work very hard to provide excellent service and settle claims fairly. Therefore, there is no need to hire a public adjusting company and pay them a fee that will be deducted from your loss settlement.
