Q. Does the law require an owner of a public adjusting firm to be licensed and have passed the public adjuster exam in Illinois.

A. Yes. This is a strong concern and abused by some many companies out there. In 2008 the Public Adjuster Act in order to prevent fraud and abuse amended the public adjuster’s act to require that all owners of the Public Adjusting Company to be licensed. By making this a requirement the State of Illinois also has the authority to run background checks and information on the owners. The president of Harris Claims Services, Jason Harris is a licensed public adjuster and is also a practicing attorney. Unlike other companies Harris Claims Services informs you up front who the owner is. Why is this important? Other companies do not comply with the Public Adjusters Act of Illinois. The act requires that the owners operating the company be licensed for obvious reasons. Some companies owners have been charged with crimes and other matters and could never be a licensed public adjuster. Simply stated the State of Illinois will not issue them a public adjusters license. So these companies name a secretary as the owner and deceive the general public. Avoid these companies at all costs.

Mold claims on the rise, but insurance company's are moving to limit coverage. Will Illinois follow Texas. The Supreme Court of Texas has ruled on the issue. The issue - Farmers Group Inc. (“Farmers”) decided to replace their HO-B homeowner policies with less comprehensive HO-A policies. Why ? Numerous mold claims. So to limit payouts in Texas, Farmers and other insurers decided to replace their broad “all-risk” policies with narrower policies, or “named peril” policies. Doing this will result in less claims payouts for those suffering losses. Profits again control the insurance claim game.

American Family has put out a video which in the middle describes how claims are paid and money is NOT PAID RIGHT AWAY and is withheld. Depreciation hold back is one of the biggest surprises to owners suffering a loss like fire. The insurance agents do NOT discuss when purchasing insurance how monies are held back. Bottom line - > When the claim is settled you DO NOT get all the monies in the beginning.
