A good South Carolina public adjuster represents your best interests in a claim, negotiating with the insurer on your behalf to obtain the highest possible payout. Some overturn denied claims, while others organize documentation to ensure you receive every penny owed to you in a claim.

Find A South Carolina Public Adjuster

Your insurer’s goal is often to pay you as little as legally possible for your claim. They typically want to close your claim quickly and limit liability. Hiring a public adjuster can help you fight back against insurance companies and receive the payout you paid for.

ClaimsMate has public adjusters available throughout South Carolina, including in:

• Columbia, South Carolina
• Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

The South Carolina Department of Insurance requires public adjusters to pass a state examination before applying for a license through the National Insurance Producer Registry. Many public adjusters complete coursework to prepare for the exam.

Some South Carolina public adjusters used to work for insurers before switching to the “other side” to represent the public. Others have decades of proven experience representing policyholders like you.

Why Hire a Public Adjuster in South Carolina

People hire public adjusters in South Carolina for many reasons. Sometimes, they’re frustrated with their insurer. In other cases, they simply want a smooth insurance claim.

Reasons to hire a public adjuster in South Carolina include:

• You want expert help for a large insurance claim.
• You want an insurance professional on your side, representing your best interests.
• Your insurer offered a disappointingly low payout for your claim.
• Your insurer denied your claim.
• You want a smoother, less stressful insurance claim.
• You have an insurance claim or dispute worth more than $10,000.

Types of Adjusters in South Carolina

Public adjusters are one of three main types of adjusters in South Carolina. They’re also the only adjuster that represents your best interests – not your insurer’s bottom line.

Public Adjusters: Public adjusters, also known as public insurance adjusters or (confusingly) private adjusters, work for policyholders like you – not for insurance companies. They represent your best interests and your needs, managing your claim from start to finish to ensure an optimal outcome.

Company Adjusters: Your insurance company has full-time staff called adjusters. These adjusters manage claims, interact with policyholders, and represent the insurer’s bottom line.

Independent Adjusters: Some insurance companies hire “independent” adjusters to resolve insurance disputes. Because the insurer hires the independent adjuster, the independent adjuster may be biased towards the insurer, representing their best interests in the claim dispute.

South Carolina Public Adjuster Pricing & Fees

Most South Carolina public adjusters work on contingency: they don’t charge anything until you accept the insurer’s final settlement offer.

Once you accept the settlement, the insurer charges a pre-arranged fee of that amount – typically between 5% and 20%, based on the public adjuster’s experience.
