We inspect, estimate
and build the claim file.

We inspect the damage, identify missing scope, prepare detailed estimates and organize the evidence supporting your claim.

A careful inspection.
A complete, careful look.

From the source of damage to affected finishes, the scope deserves a closer look.

An overlooked room, missing removal work or an unsupported quantity can change the repair scope.

SEE THE NUMBERS DIFFERENTLY

Two estimates.
One important gap.

A carrier estimate can look complete until you compare the rooms, quantities, materials and repair operations line by line. Explore four illustrative examples below.

THE RESEARCH, MADE VISIBLE

A difference
worth understanding.

In one hurricane-claim category, Florida’s OPPAGA study reported median payments 747% higher with public adjuster representation.

Citizens claims filed in 2008–2009 relating to 2005 hurricanes. Historical research, not AF Claims results or a prediction. Figures are before public adjuster fees. The report also found represented claims took longer to settle.

MEDIAN PAYMENT · 2005 HURRICANE CATEGORY

With a public adjuster$17,187

About 8.47× the total payment, not 7.47×.

GOOD QUESTIONS. STRAIGHT ANSWERS.

Let’s clear
a few things up.

Ask us directly ↗︎
Can you help after I’ve already been paid?

We can review the payment, estimate and supporting records. A payment does not tell us by itself whether the full repair scope has been addressed.

What does the free review include?

An initial conversation about the damage, claim status and available documents, plus discussion of an inspection where appropriate. Representation terms are explained separately.

How do you pursue the strongest supported result?

We inspect the damage, identify missing scope, prepare detailed estimates and organize the evidence supporting your claim. Results depend on the policy, facts and documentation.

Can I start with the documents I already have?

Yes. Start with what you have. We will help identify the next useful records and build from there.

How do we meet?

Start by phone, arrange a Zoom consultation or ask about a property inspection. In-person visits are by appointment.

Questions before your next move?

Can you review a claim if I already received a payment?

Yes. Bring the carrier’s estimate, payment breakdown and any repair proposals. We can compare the documented scope and discuss questions that remain. A review does not guarantee an additional payment.

What should I bring to a free review?

Start with the policy, claim number, carrier letters, photographs and estimates you already have. You do not need a perfect file before contacting us.

What will your team actually do?

We discuss the loss, review the available documents, inspect when appropriate and organize the scope and supporting evidence. If retained, our role and services are described in your agreement.

Can you promise a settlement amount or a completion date?

No. Any outcome depends on the policy, evidence and circumstances. We explain the work and unresolved questions without promising a particular amount or timeline.

How do I learn about your fee?

Ask for the proposed fee and services in writing before signing. Your review is free, and the team can explain the agreement applicable to your property and claim.

Can we start by phone or Zoom?

Yes. Call (239) 444-8101 or request a review. Tell us where the property is located so we can confirm service availability and whether an inspection is appropriate.
