In order to properly adjust any claim for damage to a structure, it is important to prepare a detailed repair estimate.
All insurance policies require the submission of a complete inventory of both the damaged and undamaged personal property.
One of the most complex aspects of your claim involves calculating the loss of income you will suffer as a direct result of damage to real or personal property.
What is a Public Adjuster?
Adjusters working for insurance companies are obligated to treat all claimants fairly and impartially but are still paid by the insurance company for their efforts. The state recognizes that the you, policyholder, are entitled to equal representation and that you may retain the expert services of a public insurance adjuster to assist you through the claims process. Among the best public adjusters in America, Sarasohn & Company provides over a 100 years of expertise to guide you through the claims process to achieve the most favorable settlement. In addition to numerous state licenses, Stephen Sarasohn has held the nationally recognized designation of Senior Professional Public Adjuster since 1987.

A public insurance adjuster represents you throughout the property damage claims process. They inspect the damage, document losses, review your policy, and prepare a detailed claim on your behalf. They also handle communication and negotiations with the insurance company to help ensure a fair settlement. For property owners in Boca Raton and across Florida, a public adjuster helps reduce stress and maximize the value of your claim.
Working with a Boca Raton-based public insurance adjuster gives you a local advantage when filing a property damage claim. In Boca Raton and across South Florida, they understand hurricane damage, humidity issues, and Florida insurance practices. Their local presence allows for faster inspections, in-person support, and stronger documentation. With knowledge of Florida policies and insurers, they help maximize and streamline your claim from start to finish.
You’re not required to hire a public adjuster, but having one can significantly improve your outcome. Insurance companies have their own adjusters working to protect their interests. A public adjuster works for you, ensuring your damage is fully documented, accurately valued, and fairly negotiated. In areas like Boca Raton and across Florida, where claims can be complex, many property owners choose a public adjuster to help maximize and streamline the process.
Sarasohn & Company public adjusters handle a wide range of residential and commercial property damage claims. This includes fire, hurricane, mold, flood, water damage, and plumbing leaks, as well as burglary, theft, and vandalism. We also work on commercial property claims and business interruption losses. Whether your property is in Boca Raton or elsewhere in Florida, we help ensure your claim is fully documented, accurately valued, and properly handled from start to finish.
Public adjuster fees in Florida are regulated and typically structured as a contingency fee, meaning you only pay if you recover money from your claim. In Florida, fees are generally capped at 10% of the insurance settlement for claims related to a declared emergency (like a hurricane) and up to 20% for other claims. For property owners in Boca Raton, this means your adjuster’s compensation is directly tied to the success of your claim.
The best time to hire a public insurance adjuster is as early as possible after property damage occurs, ideally before filing or negotiating your claim. Early involvement helps ensure the damage is fully documented, deadlines are met, and nothing is overlooked. Many property owners in Boca Raton and across Florida also bring in a public adjuster if their claim is delayed, underpaid, or denied to help pursue a better outcome.
