Dock Damage
Property Claim
With all the river-front and canal-front properties in Florida, many properties have boat docks. Lightning, fires, and hurricanes are the three most common causes of dock damage as covered by insurance. You may have to check your homeowner’s insurance policy to see what is covered and what isn’t. There are also rules about what kinds of docks are covered with respect to power and/or water going to your dock.

Frequently Asked
Questions
We are Licensed Claims Adjusters and appointed by the State of Florida to represent you through the claims process and help relieve your stress. It is against the law for a contractor to help you with your claim and many come into the area after a storm and try to do so. We build a comprehensive claim package and then tell the insurance company what they should be paying you while helping you navigate the claims process. Your contractor can then focus on what they are licensed to do which is perform repairs. (see warning issued by Jimmy Patronis from FL Dept of Financial Services)
Business Interruption/Loss of revenue, Property damage to both commercial and residential property, Condo Associations, contents claims, mold, loss of use, marine, etc.
Yes, but it stands to reason that handling your own claim is like going to court without an attorney. You could do it, but without the knowledge of the rules and procedures, you might be at a sizable disadvantage. More specifically, a public insurance adjuster will assist you in the preparation of inventories, estimates and other factual proofs of loss. He or she will handle all the necessary details for compiling and filing claims, as required by the terms of your insurance policies. They will also confer, on your behalf, with insurance company representatives and handle all matters essential to a proper resolution.
According to a study by The Office Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability (OPPAGA), policyholders with public adjuster representation lead to higher average payments, sometimes considerably higher. The study offers an example of the average compensation for 2005 hurricane claims in FL. They were 747% higher when a public adjuster was involved.
Call us immediately after any damages or losses or even for a free inspection to ensure you have no damage. It is best if we are involved with the entire claims process from the beginning to ensure the best possible outcome for you and to help avoid any potential pitfalls.

Our Word For It
After experiencing resistance to any significant payout with our home owners insurance company for obvious damage to our roof, we hired Clint from Ask An Adjuster to fight the battle for us. He made the process stressless and had creative solutions to the many roadblocks the insurance company put up. Clint warned us it would take 6-12 months to go through the process and encouraged us throughout the process to be patient. Success came 6 months later with a full roof replacement settlement! The insurance company offer of $2,300 was increased to $23,000! We could not be more pleased and would highly recommend Clint and Ask An Adjuster.

I have nothing but positive feedback on my first experience hiring a public adjuster. Alex has made this process less of a burden but has also been a good listener since I like to ask a lot of questions. He definitely gives me great confidence in his willingness to advocate for more than just an easy settlement from our Insurance company. Thank you, Alex, for making this a pleasant experience so far! It’s been incredibly comforting knowing I’m in good hands.
