Appraisal Services

Get a Fair and Accurate Assessment of Your Property Damage

When you and your insurance company disagree on the value of a claim, the appraisal process provides a structured path to resolution. However, the outcome depends heavily on who represents you.

Hawk Public Adjusting serves as your appointed appraiser, working to determine the true and accurate amount of loss for your property damage claim. We provide an objective, thorough evaluation throughout the appraisal process, ensuring all damages are properly identified and accurately valued.

What Is the Insurance Appraisal Process?

Most insurance policies include an appraisal clause that allows disputes over claim value to be resolved without going to court.

Here’s how it works:

You select an independent appraiser (that’s where we come in)
The insurance company selects their appraiser
Both appraisers evaluate the loss and attempt to reach an agreement
If needed, a neutral umpire is involved to finalize the decision

The result is a binding determination of the loss amount—making it critical to have an experienced appraiser on your side.

You may benefit from appraisal services if:

Your claim has been underpaid
The insurance estimate seems too low
There are disputes over scope or pricing
Damages were missed or underestimated
You want an independent, professional evaluation
