What is a Public Adjuster?
If you find yourself in the process of making a claim with your insurance company, you might find it worthwhile to hire a public adjuster. This might be especially true if you feel like the insurance adjuster is not including all the necessary costs for repairs from your claim.
The State of California requires careful training and knowledge to be licensed as a public adjuster. Often, public adjusters are members of their professional organization which requires certain skill standards.
If you have a big claim, there could be things that need fixing, that you may not see on the surface. With our experience and determination, FTP Public Insurance Adjusters will make sure nothing is overlooked in your claim settlement.
Certainly, you might not even recognize the possibility that something has been missed, so you don’t know to ask for more. Because of our experience, we will thoroughly evaluate and negotiate on your behalf with the insurance company adjuster.
Insurance Claim Adjusters That Represent You!
Most insurance policyholders have little experience bargaining with their insurance company. Corporate adjusters frequently pose leading inquiries and misunderstand your words and behavior to fit their purposes. This tactic allows them to minimize or downplay your loss. A public adjuster can fight on your behalf!
Public Adjusters are professionals who help individuals, businesses and organizations receive the maximum amount of money they are entitled to when it comes to claiming their insurance. They work closely with an individual's insurance company or provider to ensure that all elements of their claim are accurate and complete.
Public Adjusters provide a valuable service in determining a fair settlement between an insurance company and its policyholder. They review the details of a claim thoroughly, including but not limited to any corresponding photographs, reports, or estimates. By doing so, they can identify any discrepancies or gaps that may be present in a claim before submitting it to the insurance company for consideration. In addition to reviewing claims carefully, Public Adjusters also negotiate with the insurance carrier on behalf of their clients in order to secure the best possible settlement terms.
Our public adjusters will help you prepare an accurate and well-documented insurance claim that is tailored to your specific situation and needs. They will file all necessary paperwork and attend depositions on your behalf, ensuring that every aspect of your claim has been addressed and that all supporting evidence has been provided.

Lightning strikes can cause severe property damage; from causing a fire, to destroying your personal property and business assets. Anytime there is a powerful surge of electricity through electrical systems or circuits, you can be sure there’s underlying damage. We’ll advocate for you and tell you what’s covered and what’s not covered under your insurance policy.

If your house has flooded, once your local police or fire department says you can return, you’re in a race against mold growth to clear out debris from your home. You may find high humidity in your home, which is the perfect environment for mold and other bacteria to form. Flood water is commonly classified as Category 3, or black water. Understanding the science of black water will only help you reach your appropriate settlement(s).

Many home and business owners can see damage to their properties. However, most wind and hail damage cannot be seen. Not having your home properly inspected can result in thousands of dollars in damages over-and-above the damages caused by the storm… and you’ll be out of pocket for those damages by not properly submitting the claim to your insurance company.

Sometimes a small leak can turn into a major headache and your insurance policy may or may not cover the leak depending on its source. Mold resulting from flooding, a broken pipe or other water related issue can severly affect your health and property without your knowledge. For The People Public Insurance Adjusting are property experts with more than 80 years of combined experience in handling water damage issues.

If you have experienced hail damage to your home, you know that it can be costly. An extensive investigation to your real property is necessary, as shingles, siding, and gutters may be damaged. Unseen roof damage can lead to leaks, which can cause further complexities in your insurance claim. Be sure to take pictures of all damages of any dents, punctures or scrapes to the exterior to your home, fences, patios, and other structures. Proper documentation will greatly impact your claim.

If you have purchased earthquake insurance, your policy typically covers the cost to repair common earthquake damage—including damage to roofing and walls, and most of your belongings. If you can’t live in your home, your insurance company will pay additional living expenses, as noted in your policy, while the damage is assessed and your home is being repaired or rebuilt. If repairs take longer than the period of time covered by your policy, you may be eligible for additional assistance.

If you’ve found yourself the victim of vandalism or theft, the first thing you should always do is to file a police report. Once you’ve done that, its time to call us. Filing a theft insurance claim or a vandalism insurance claim can be tedious, particularly for the average person who isn’t familiar with how the insurance claim process works. We will meet with you, assess the damage, and track the claim with your insurance company.

Our public adjusters will sort through every inch of your damaged property including personal property searching for anything that the insurance company may have missed. This thorough examination often yields damages that were overlooked or underestimated. Several digital photos and a 3D Matterport are taken along with detailed notes. Our adjuster deal with all of the forms and related paperwork that are required by your insurance carrier.

The fair rental value may or may not be equal to the rent payable by tenants. It can vary according to different factors, such as whether the dwelling has been rented to the tenants furnished or unfurnished, whether bills and taxes are included in the rent amount, and whether you provide the total lodging to the tenants. In a nutshell, the actual cash value of the property you rent out is determined by the amount of support you provide.

One of the most daunting moments for an enterprise is when it loses income due to various interruptions. When the normal flow of income in a business is interfered with, it predisposes a myriad of problems which can be detrimental and relatively expensive. As expert public adjusters, For The People will help your business get back onto its feet within the minimum time possible by expediting the entire process, and bargaining for fair compensation of our clients, per the terms in your policy.

Building collapses can be caused by a number of factors, including (but not limited to) structural problems, soil subsidence, earth movements, improper construction, blasts, gas leaks and more. Property insurance policies typically cover some types of building collapses, but not all. Insurance companies today frequently restrict collapse coverage by redefining the term “collapse” and limiting their exposure.

Top Rated Appraisers & Umpires Available..
What is the Insurance Appraisal process?
The appraisal is a policy provision found in the loss settlement section. It is an alternate dispute resolution, which can resolve a disagreement when the insurance company and the policyholder do not agree on the amount of loss. This can be an alternative to a lawsuit which could be extremely costly. The appraisal does not address coverage issues but can include or exclude items based on causation depending on the state.
When is Appraisal Appropriate?
Many times there is a disagreement over the insurance company's valuation of a claim and the actual cost to restore the policyholder to pre-loss condition. An appraisal process is an option for dispute resolution for many homeowners and commercial policyholders. The appraisal process does not determine coverage. If not properly invoked, employed, and/or carried out the process may not be binding, so it is important to select a qualified appraiser and umpire.
How does the Insurance Appraisal Process Work?
Once the Appraisal provision is invoked, the insured's appraiser and the insurance company appraiser will provide an estimate of the damage and attempt to come to an agreement on the amount of the loss. If the appraisers cannot come to an agreement, they will submit their differences to the umpire who will make the final decision. An itemized decision agreed to by two of these three will set the amount of loss. Such award shall be binding. Each party will pay its own appraiser and bear the other expenses of the appraisal and umpire equally.
