Florida Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jimmy Patronis issued a media release advising homeowners of their rights when working with public adjusters for Hurricane Ian insurance claims. While public adjusters can potentially get homeowners more money from their claims, consumers should consider whether the cost is worth the benefit. Homeowners must also know their rights under Florida law and be aware of bad actors who may try to get between policyholders and their insurance claims. Florida law gives homeowners up to 10 days from the date of the contract to cancel, and public adjusters are subject to fines if they violate any provisions.
