Public Adjusters for Commercial Properties Wildfire Property Damage Claims
Everything you have worked for is now in ashes. Your employees and customers are counting on you to get back to business quickly. You call your insurance company thinking they will be ready and willing to help you, as you have been a loyal client for years, always paying your premium on time. Unfortunately, you are now a liability to them. You are left to figure out the most complicated property insurance claims of your career on your own. One mistake in understanding your policy, missing a deadline, or sharing too much information with your carrier at the start of the claims process may significantly reduce your settlement.
We shoulder the burden for you, as we have for thousands of other businesses, managing the entire insurance claims process to secure the best settlement possible for you to rebuild.
We lost not only our home, but a good portion of our vineyard, our tasting barn, our guest home, all of our equipment, hundreds of acres of forestland and so much more. It was a complex layering of a personal and commercial loss and one that we could in no way manage ourselves. Through the advice of both business associates and through our own personal network, Adjusters International emerged as the firm most highly recommended. Tim’s expertise was critical in negotiating with our insurance company. He oversaw every detail of the multitude of assessments, discussions, inventories, documentations and his attention to detail was impressive. He really partnered with us to understand who we are, our family situation, our business, our loss. He was resourceful and diligent in fighting to maximize our claim on every level. And we were both continually amazed and grateful at the enormity of the work that he was doing on our behalf. The final settlement with our insurance company was OUTSTANDING.
No organization in the country has more experience handling wildfire claims for businesses and policyholders than us.

What to Focus on After a Wildfire
Before engaging your insurance company, consider the following questions:
- What is the role of my insurance agent/broker? When faced with supporting my position or the insurance company’s, with whom will they stand?
- Loss of appearance allowances, are they covered?
- The insurance company hired a construction estimator. What do I need to know?
- Why is a claims strategy so important?
- Am I impacted by coinsurance?
- How can the insurance adjuster represent both me and the insurance company?
