What Do We Do at Capital Adjusting Services
A public adjuster has been defined as “an independent insurance professional that a policyholder may hire to help settle an insurance claim on his or her behalf.” When one has damage sustained to their home and business it is without fail a stressful time. A public adjuster not only works to maximize the value of your claim but to be your resource and ensure that everything you are entitled to from the insurance company is paid but also to guide you through the process and ensure that every question and concern is promptly addressed. At Capital Adjusting Services our team of public adjusters and staff is available to ensure that your claim experience is as stress-free as possible.
Why Should You Hire a Licensed Public Adjuster in North Carolina?
Along with the peace of mind you will enjoy hiring a professional public adjuster you will also likely get a much larger payout from the insurance company. When our public adjusters prepare your claim we include everything and anything necessary to restore your home to its condition prior to the loss happening. A government study found that people who hire a public adjuster to assist in the claim process receive 774% more than those that do not. The small percentage paid only when we get your claim paid is a tiny fraction of the amount of increase one should expect when hiring a professional and licensed public adjuster.
After having a fire that destroyed our entire home, we asked others what to do and everyone said to hire a public adjuster to deal with the headache of dealing with the insurance company. It was great advice. CAPITAL ADJUSTING helped us through every step of the way and made the process so simple. The insurance company did not want to pay us for all our clothing and furniture saying it should be cleaned. Adam Schwartz fought for us and the insurance company paid for every item we claimed. I know the outcome would not have been the same without Capital on our side.

Can a Public Adjuster Get Me a Better Settlement?
Research has shown that people who hire a public adjuster get higher settlements from their insurance companies even when factoring in the adjuster’s fee. Public adjusters are paid a percentage of your payout. Because they get paid when you do, adjusters work hard on your behalf to get you what you are owed. Given the likelihood of a higher settlement and the relief that comes with handing over your claim to a professional, many people make the choice to hire their own insurance adjuster in North Carolina. In addition to protecting your property, a public adjuster protects your time and minimizes your stress during the claims process, which can be priceless.
An experienced public adjuster knows just what to look for. They are skilled at finding damage on your property. After a property damage claim is settled, there is nothing more frustrating than realizing that you overlooked damage on your property and have to go through the claims process again. With an adjuster, you have a better chance of submitting a claim that captures all the damage on your property. They also know how to best document the damage, so that your insurance company will have compelling proof that the damage exists and is covered by your policy. Public adjusters are insurance policy experts. They know exactly what to look for in your insurance policies to determine which policy to file a claim under, and they know how to develop the best strategy for getting you what you are owed.
What If My Claim Was Underpaid or Denied?
You deserve the maximum settlement for your claim, and it may not be too late. A public adjuster understands every step of the claims process and may be able to put together a stronger, more convincing claim that results in a higher settlement. We will thoroughly review every aspect of your claim and review your insurance policy.
