Where a Public Adjuster file loses its leverage

Leads slip through the cracks

Homeowner leads come from referrals, calls, and forms — without a CRM, follow-ups get missed.

Documents and estimates scattered

Policies, proofs of loss, and estimates belong on the file the carrier will read.

Carrier communication history

Every demand, response, and counter has to be documented for the file and the settlement.

Settlement and final package

Tracking claim value, settlement, and the final package is hard without one organized workspace.

Multiple client workflows

How work reaches public adjusters, and how it runs

Files arrive from more than one direction. Each source of work gets its own intake, statuses, templates, and automations.

New Homeowner Leads

Inbound leads from referrals, calls, and forms.

Active Claim Files

Signed clients with open homeowner claims.

In Settlement

Files in negotiation and final package.

1

Lead intake

Capture the homeowner lead, send the agreement, and convert to an active claim file.

2

Document & inspect

Collect policies, proofs of loss, and estimates; schedule and document the inspection.

3

Negotiate

Log every demand and response and keep the carrier communication history on the file.

4

Settlement & final package

Track settlement, assemble the final package, and close with full history.

From signing to settlement

The file starts before the claim does.

A Public Adjuster file begins as a lead and ends as a settlement, and the documentation in between is the leverage. Every stage writes to the record the carrier will eventually read.

  1. 01

    Lead & referral

    Inbound leads from a form, a call, or a referral open a file in the homeowner workflow.

  2. 02

    Engagement

    The signed contract and the client record live on the file from day one.

  3. 03

    Inspection

    Scheduled against the property, with photographs captured on site.

  4. 04

    Documentation

    Estimates, policy documents, and evidence organized per claim.

  5. 05

    Claim communication

    Correspondence with the carrier threaded onto the record as it happens.

  6. 06

    Resolution

    Settlement and closeout, with the full history behind the number.
