The Different Types of Adjusters
When you file an insurance claim, you often need an adjuster to come and evaluate the damages. How the adjuster handles the claim and damages to your property greatly influences how much financial assistance you receive from your insurance company. However, not all adjusters are created equal. There are different types of adjusters whose goals vary. It’s important to recognize these differences so you can understand which types of adjusters are right for you. Here is what our experts say.
Staff Adjusters
Staff adjusters are hired by the insurance company. They evaluate damages with the company’s best interests in mind. They are required to handle claims ethically and fairly, but that can be interpreted loosely. It’s important to understand their perspective by working for the insurance company. They don’t work for policyholders, and therefore don’t have your best interests in mind when evaluating damages and determining financial compensation.
Independent Adjusters
Independent adjusters don’t work for a specific insurance company. Rather, they belong to firms that can be hired by insurance companies to evaluate damages on their behalf. While they don’t work directly for the insurance company, they are still working for them, meaning they still don’t have your best interests in mind.
