Nevada Information
A public adjuster is a licensed insurance claims professional who represents the insured, not the insurance company. For Nevada commercial property owners, a public adjuster can help assess complex losses, organize documentation, evaluate business interruption damages, interpret policy language, and negotiate a settlement that reflects the full scope of your property and operational impacts, especially after fires, wind events, water damage, or desert storm systems.

When to Consider Hiring a Public Adjuster
A public adjuster may be helpful if:
- Your commercial property has experienced significant structural damage (fire, windstorm, severe weather, water release, vandalism).
- Your insurance claim includes business interruption, extra expenses, tenant displacement, or loss of use.
- The insurer’s early estimate undervalues your losses or does not include major components.
- Your property includes industrial facilities, specialized equipment, warehouses, multi-tenant buildings, or high-value inventory requiring professional documentation.
