Why Hire a Public Adjuster in Colorado?

The truth is, most insurance claims in the United States are underpaid. Indeed, the whole process of insurance claims is complex and riddled with hitches and hurdles that make the process even more difficult than it should be. Because why not? They are not charities; they are businesses that run for profit. Their goal is to make money. Thus, they want to pay you as little as legally possible. They also have all the time and resources to control and complicate the process. Without the help of experts, they can easily lead you astray and underpay or even deny your claim.

Fortunately, there is a way to fight back. Whether you own a business, a commercial property, a home, or any type of property, you will likely face problems when dealing with your insurance company. When this happens, your best chance of resolving any issue is with us. As a public adjuster, the policyholder is our client; your interest is our interest. We obsess over the details, analyze all angles of the forensic details, and verify all data to reach the right and just settlement for you. We accelerate the whole process too.

Colorado Public Adjuster Duties

The primary duty of a public adjuster is to review your claim by surveying the damage to your property, make a professional estimate of the cost of the damage, and then help you file the insurance claim. From there we will keep track of the progress; make the necessary appointments, attend meetings on your behalf, and submit additional supporting documents if needed. Additionally, we can also help you find alternate arrangement should your property become unsafe or inhabitable from the damage.

We are not allowed to handle bodily injury claims, car insurance claims, or third-party claims. Basically, our job is to make sure you don’t settle for less and you get accurate and just insurance payment. We can take the stress of dealing with the exhausting insurance claim process from you.

How Do Colorado Public Adjusters Work?

The process of insurance claim assistance that public adjusters do in Colorado is pretty much the same. But as with most things in life, not all public adjusters are made equal. Before public adjusters can do their job, they need to get licensed by the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA). The license gives public adjusters the authority to do their job.

Public adjusters work directly with property owners, business owners, and policyholders to ensure an accurate, just, smooth insurance claim process. When property owners experience damage to their property or loss, their insurance company will assign their own adjuster to review the case. This person, of course, works for the insurance company. Thus, their goal is to close the claim as quickly as possible and pay the claimant as low as legally possible. This is where the problem could start, and where the benefit of having a public adjuster on your side gets handy.

When you have a public adjuster, you have an insurance industry professional on your team. And like anyone in your team, we will fight for your best interest. To ensure a smooth and hassle-free insurance claim process, we will inspect everything, analyze your loss and your insurance contract, and come up with the most accurate and fair computation that is right for you. And if that amount is different from what your insurance company is offering, then we will negotiate on your behalf. We will go back and forth with the insurance company and we will never stop until you eventually agree on a certain number. The process will only be completed when you accept the offer.

Advantages of Hiring A Colorado Public Adjuster

We will do all the hard work of the insurance claim for you, from filing the paperwork, arranging inspections of your property, and negotiating on your behalf. Most of the time, we use the following advantages to support your claims:

Local Advantage

Many times, insurance companies hire adjusters from out-of-state to conduct the survey after a widespread disaster. This is usually where the problem starts, as most of the time, these outside adjusters have little knowledge about the local cost, hazards, business practices, court procedures, the goals of your company, fees, and property restrictions. That means they also don’t have the experience of dealing with local homeowners, relationships with the community, and the commercial laws in your area. Hiring a local public adjuster can help you deal with this dilemma.

Save Time

Whether it’s a residential property, a business establishment, or a commercial space, we know you have priorities that supersede dealing with insurance companies. We will take over for you; we will manage your claim and help you focus on the more pressing issues and more important aspects of your life.

Claim Expertise

The process of an insurance claim is complex and full of twists and turns that can easily lead you astray and frustrate you to settle for less. You don’t have to stress yourself with that. We are very familiar with all the ins and outs of the process, and we know how we can make it work for your benefit.

More Efficient Claims Resolutions

To keep you safe from all the bureaucratic traps that many insurance companies use, we will do all the walking, talking, and filing for you. We will expedite your claim and get you the financial aid you need for your repairs and renovations immediately.

Finding The Right Public Adjuster

Now there are lots of public adjusters out there, and most of them, if not all, will claim to have your best interest and fight for you. But you should know they are not all made equal. The most important thing you need to do is to find a public adjuster who has a good understanding of your expectations from your insurance claim and can find the workaround to give you the advantage even when your claim is denied. Their primary job is to negotiate better deals on your behalf, thus, you need a public adjuster company that has:

  • The license and certification to be a public adjuster
  • The membership from the National Association of Public Insurance Adjusters
  • The skills and resources to assess the damage to your property
  • Experience in working with insurance companies
  • The ability and commitment to communicate clearly and effectively

We Handle All Types of Insurance Claims

  • Fire damage
  • Hail & wind damage
  • Hurricane damage
  • AC/Leaks

Public Adjuster Costs

Public adjusters charge a pre-arranged fee of around 5% to 15% of the final payout from your insurance claim. Most Colorado public adjusters only charge this much, and only charge it at the end of the claims process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a public adjuster and why are they needed?
Public adjusters are independent professionals you (the policyholder) can hire to help you settle your insurance claim on your behalf from your insurance provider. They can save you from the hassle and headaches of dealing with your insurance provider.
Why should I hire a public adjuster when my insurance company has already assigned me an adjuster?
The adjuster that your insurance company provides works for your insurance company, NOT you. Thus, this person will do everything to protect the company he/she is working for. Since the goal of the company is to make a profit, the adjuster will make sure you will receive as little compensation as legally possible from your insurance policy.

A public adjuster, on the other hand, will work for you and put your interest first. This means this professional will do everything legally possible to help you get the appropriate compensation based on your insurance policy and damages to your property.
I've already received a settlement check from my insurance company and it was not enough, should I call Bellator Claims?
Yes and you should. While it is actually quite common for businesses and homeowners to handle the insurance claim process on their own, especially for first-timers, however, note that insurance companies will always find a way to underpay their policyholders. You don’t have to settle or feel pressured to accept their offer right away. As a matter of fact, you have years to reopen a claim. Call us today and let us take over for you.
How are public adjusters paid?
We receive a small percentage from your insurance claim, and we will not be paid until you get paid. That means we will work hard to give you the best offer possible. We will advise you of any and all offers available and leave the final decision to you.
What are the types of claims adjusters?
There are actually three types of claims adjusters, namely;

Company adjusters – these are the adjusters your insurance company provides; they work and get paid by the insurance company.

Independent adjusters – These professionals work for independent adjusting firms and are usually hired by insurance companies on a contract basis. They help insurance companies process claims, but again, they also work for the company.

Public adjusters – these are either freelancers or public adjusting firms that policyholders can hire to settle their insurance claims. Note that the terms private adjusters and public adjusters mean the same, and sometimes both are used interchangeably.
Can contractors help settle insurance claims too?
No. Only licensed public adjusters are allowed to settle insurance claims, whether it’s for commercial or residential properties. If contractors insist on doing so, they commit a violation of the Unauthorized Practice of Public Adjusting, which is a felony charge. While contractors can help fix the damages to your property, they can’t help you with your insurance claim, simply because they don’t have the experience and expertise to file the claim on your behalf.
Can I hire an attorney to settle my insurance claim instead?
Yes, but since attorneys are not experts in evaluating the total scope of your property, losses caused by interruption of your business, and the overall process of insurance claims, it is not uncommon for them to hire the services of public adjusters. Most insurance claim disputes can be settled by public adjusters, this saves you time and money from the additional expenses of legal representation from an attorney.
I have received and accepted the check for the insurance settlement from my insurance company, is it too late to hire a public adjuster even if I have issues with it?
No, you can file for supplemental damage for undiscovered damages such as damage behind walls (when reconstruction starts), water damage, etc.
