Charlie : John in Greatwood says, “What is the best way to find a good public adjuster for our flood claims?”
Podcast: Play in new window
Tom: Well, that’s a good question. The only thing I can tell you is to get online and start Googling that stuff and finding all the ones in towns. Start making phone calls. There’s a bunch of them, but it’s not something you see on corners advertised next to the grocery store.
Charlie : You know, you got the Chinese laundry, the tattoo parlor, the public adjuster, and….
Tom: Yeah, exactly.
Charlie : No, it’s not like that.
Tom: Right now, the lawyers are advertising a lot.
Charlie : Right.
Tom: The public adjuster, which the lawyers don’t like to see it come first, because they’re usually more effective. The public adjusters usually don’t have to advertise.
Charlie : Okay. There’s no kind of rating for them or anything like that?
Tom: No, not that I know of.
Charlie : They are what they are, okay.
Tom: Yep.
