Searching for a Washington DC Public Adjuster Near Me?

From Capitol Hill rowhouses to Northwest condos, District property owners face wind damage, burst pipes, hail, and fire every year. A Washington DC Public Adjuster can help you document your loss and maximize your insurance claim settlement.

What is a Public Adjuster?

A Public Adjuster is a licensed insurance claim expert hired by policyholders—not by insurance companies. Under District law, a public insurance adjuster works solely on first-party claims covering your real or personal property, negotiating for and helping effect the settlement of your loss.

Your DC Public Adjuster can interpret your policy language, inspect and document the damage, prepare a detailed estimate, and handle the back-and-forth with your carrier.

Are Public Adjusters licensed in Washington DC?

Yes. The District licenses and regulates public insurance adjusters through the Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking (DISB). Applicants apply through NIPR, post a $20,000 bond, and file the contract they intend to use in the District. Notably, the company and independent adjusters your carrier sends out are not required to hold a DC license at all.

How much does a DC Public Adjuster charge?

The District caps Public Adjuster fees at 10% of your total insurance recovery—among the lowest caps in the country. Fees are contingency-based, so there are no out-of-pocket costs upfront.

DC law also requires a written contract on a form approved by the Commissioner, and you may cancel until midnight on the third business day after you sign.
