Condominium Insurance Claims

                  Condominium Association and Home Owner Association Claims

United States Adjusters are well known for obtaining maximum claims recovery for Condo Associations of all sizes. As State Certified Licensed Public Adjusters we can serve the needs of any Property Management Company of Condominium Association anywhere in Florida. While results may vary from claim to claim,  Our Public Adjusters fight to recover the maximum amount, which can be as much as 400% to 500+% more than the insurance company’s initial offer.

How many home and business owners fully understand their insurance policies and how can they be sure they received all that was justly due? The average person has never read their insurance policy and is not aware that exclusions and limitations exist that preside over their policy set by state law and regulation. Having a good insurance policy and relying on your insurance adjuster’s analysis is typically not enough.

This additional monies, give the Association Boards the financial power for reconstruction and property repairs to the satisfaction of the unit owners.

Tailored Claims Solutions

Adjusting commercial -condominium claims requires a tenacious attitude. Every claim is different and requires a mindset unlike typical residential or small business claims or other commercial losses. Condo Association claims require carefully tailored solutions unique to each property. After a hurricane, or any covered peril, the problem could be all about governing documents, ownership interests, and insurance coverage analysis. Or it could be a combination of roof leaks, damaged roof tiles, destruction of the clubhouse, pool area, signage, and much more.

 A few questions and answers that may help define the role of a public adjuster.

Q: If our Association hires a public adjuster will we lose our insurance coverage?

A: No. The Florida Department of Insurance has laws that prohibit this type of action. It is your right as the insured to hire a licensed Public Adjuster to professionally assist you throughout the claims process.

As public adjusters not only must we thoroughly inspect and estimate the damages we must have the communication skills to work closely with:

• Condominium Association board of directors
• Property Management companies
• Insurance company adjusters
• Structural Engineers
• Law firms specializing in insurance claims

Public Adjusters also have the knowledge of experts such as:

• Air Conditioning consultants & companies
• General contractors
• Roofing consultants & contractors
• Industrial hygienist - Mold and mildew specialists
• Water extraction experts
• Plumbing Services
• Repair Specialists
• Sign Manufacturers
• Painting Contractors

Q: As Public Adjusters can you negotiate the services of a contractor?

A: No, legally a Public Adjuster cannot hire any person or company to complete any repairs on your behalf; it would be a conflict of interest. A Public Adjuster’s job is to settle your claim with the maximum amount of compensation possible.

*United States Adjusters can however, provide your Association with a list of licensed and bonded contractors for your board to receive professional consultation.

Q: Are we better off first hiring an attorney?

A: That depends? If your claim has not been denied for coverage, a knowledgeable public adjuster can get the claim handled.  A public adjuster will prepare the required documents and get the insurance company to respond
