Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file an insurance claim?
The time limit varies by policy and state, but it's typically 1-2 years. However, you should notify your insurance company as soon as possible after the incident.
What if my claim is denied?
If your claim is denied, you have the right to appeal. We can help you understand the denial reasons and work to overturn the decision.
Do I need a public adjuster?
While not required, a public adjuster can help ensure you receive the maximum settlement, especially for complex or large claims.
How much does a public adjuster cost?
Public adjusters typically work on a contingency basis, taking a percentage of the settlement (usually 10-15%). You pay nothing upfront.
