Enjoy this discussion with Andy Gurczak, founder of All City Adjusting. Andy is a public adjuster, assisting property owners to get higher payouts on their insurance claims. In this conversation, Jonathan and Andy discuss why you and your insurance company do not have aligned interests, what you should NOT do when filing a claim, exclusions and endorsements to watch out for, and why you might want to work with a private/ public adjuster on your next major claim on a commercial real estate property.
