Weston Public Adjuster FAQs
Weston property owners often have questions about when to involve a public adjuster, what happens after damage is discovered, and how representation fits into an insurance claim. Here are answers to common questions. Contact us for a free claim review.
Does Homeland handle hurricane roof and wind claims in Weston?▶
Yes. Weston sits inland, but it still takes damaging gusts: a Weston station recorded a 98 mph gust during Hurricane Irma, and Wilma brought gusts around 120 mph to Broward County in 2005. Homeland documents roof, wind and water damage and handles the claim; call our local line 24/7 at (954) 787-3777.
Does Homeland handle hurricane and storm claims in Weston?▶
Yes. Hurricane, wind and storm claims are among the losses Homeland handles. Broward County can see significant wind damage and inland flooding during hurricanes and tropical storms, and we help Weston property owners document that damage.
I need a really good public adjuster in Weston. How do I pick one?▶
Judge every firm the same way: an active license you can look up on the Florida DFS licensee search, a named adjuster on your file, the fee in writing before you sign, and real results and reviews. Homeland: named licensed adjusters, firm license W818638, serving Florida property owners since 2006, English and Spanish, and a licensed adjuster at your property in Weston.
Who is actually going to handle my case?▶
A licensed Homeland public adjuster, named to you on the first call. Our team: Yeni Martinez, President (Florida public adjuster license P103370), Alberto Enriquez (P112658), Yisel Dieguez (W873884) and Nelson Avila (Florida public adjuster license G332385 · Florida Certified Contractor CRC1331322 · property insurance appraiser and umpire). Each license is linked under Verify Homeland.
What percentage do you charge?▶
Florida law caps what any public adjuster can charge (Florida fee limits). Homeland explains its fee in your written agreement before you sign, so you know it up front. No recovery, no fee. And after you sign, you can still cancel within the period Florida law gives you (your cancellation rights).
Can you get me more money from my insurance?▶
We document every dollar your policy owes and negotiate for the full amount. What we do: inspect and document all the damage, write a line-item estimate, compare it with the insurer’s, and negotiate the claim for you, start to finish. See our published results.
Is there a public adjuster near me in Weston?▶
Yes. A licensed Homeland public adjuster comes to your property in Weston, and anywhere in Broward County, including Pembroke Pines and Plantation. Our office is in Miami Lakes (visits by appointment), but you don’t need to go there. Call (954) 787-3777, 24/7, in English or Spanish.
My insurance won’t pay. Who do I call?▶
A licensed public adjuster can still help, and underpaid, denied and closed claims are a big part of what we do. We review the insurer’s letter and estimate, inspect the damage and can reopen or supplement the claim within Florida’s deadlines. Read Claim denied? What to do next.
My roof (or my AC) is leaking. Is that a claim?▶
It depends on the cause and on your policy, so don’t guess and don’t throw out damaged materials yet. Take photos and video, keep receipts for emergency repairs, and have a licensed public adjuster look at it. Homeland inspects the damage, reads your policy with you and tells you plainly whether it’s worth a claim. Call (954) 787-3777.
I already opened a claim. Can I still hire a public adjuster?▶
Yes. You can bring in a public adjuster at any stage: right after you report the claim, while the insurer is still inspecting, or after an offer or a denial. We review what has been filed and said so far, and from then on we deal with the insurer for you.
I need a good public adjuster for damage at my house in Weston. Where do I start?▶
Call a licensed public adjuster before you sign anything or throw anything out. Homeland answers 24/7 at (954) 787-3777, and a licensed adjuster comes to your property in Weston, inspects and photographs the damage and explains your options in English or Spanish. The claim review is free. No recovery, no fee.
