How do public adjusters differ from insurance adjusters and independent adjusters?
Different types of adjusters include insurance adjusters, independent adjusters, and public adjusters. Both the insurance and independent adjuster work for the insurance company, while a public adjuster works only for the property owner – you! A Public Adjuster works on the policyholder’s behalf to represent their best interests and get a fair settlement from the insurance company. The policyholder has the right to choose his own contractor and not be limited to the lowest bid. The insurance companies retain adjusters who protect their interests.
