What is a Public Adjuster?

NFA is the leading public adjusting firm in North America. We have more than 30 offices, and we do business in almost every state, as well as in Canada

Many of our team members are former insurance company claims adjusters. They are now seasoned experts in public claims adjusting.

In short, a public or private adjuster offers a second opinion about the value of any property loss claim.

We represent property owners who may find themselves dealing with a dispute with their insurance provider. Sometimes we are involved right from the start of a claim, but we can also help when a property owner feels the claim process is taking too long.

We specialize in large losses in both commercial and residential properties. We have extensive experience with commercial property or large losses and represent hundreds of businesses each year.

When you hire NFA, this is what we do:

  • Carefully review your insurance policy, identify all coverage limits
  • Inspect and document all damage to building and other belongings
  • Negotiate value of your loss with your insurance company
  • Settle your claim much faster, and for a larger amount
  • For businesses, we may be able to recoup lost revenue


NFA has been working for property owners to help settle disputes, or other issues with insurers for more than 90 years. We make certain that property owners are treated fairly, and that they get what they deserve in their insurance settlement.

We handle all types of claims ranging from fire, natural disaster, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, or even vandalism. We have handled everything from large residential claims to major commercial property claims of up to $90,000,000.

If you have experienced any type of property loss you can contact NFA 24/7. We have a team of experts ready to get you on the road to recovery.
