Independent Adjusters vs. Public Adjusters

Public Adjuster Handshake

What is a public adjuster? What is the difference between the adjuster my insurance company provides and a public adjuster? Who does a public adjuster help? These are all common questions we see when helping our clients. It’s important to educate yourself on these topics because when the time comes it could save you thousands down the road following a disaster.

What is a Public Adjuster?

What is the difference between the adjuster my insurance company provides and a public adjuster? The most important thing to know is a public adjuster works directly for you. This is to ensure you receive the maximum value from your claim and policy. Some  types of adjusters you may come across include:

  • Staff Adjuster
  • Public Adjuster
  • Independent Adjuster

The main difference between a public adjuster and the adjusters stated above is a public adjuster works on YOUR behalf throughout the entire claims process. Other adjusters usually work for the insurance company or are working as a subcontractor for the company.
