Texas Department of Insurance recognizes public adjusters’ authority in coverage disagreements.

A disagreement about coverage does not automatically put your claim outside a public adjuster’s role. Texas Department of Insurance addressed that exact question in Order 2024-8598.

“[Texas Department of Insurance] disagrees with the comment that public insurance adjusters have no authority on coverage disagreements”

Texas Department of Insurance explains that the statutory definition does not exclude public adjusters from representing an insured in coverage disagreements. That means our work goes beyond measuring damage and calculating repair costs: we can represent your position in the claim negotiation when the insurer disputes coverage.

Request your free claim review

Was your property claim paid fairly?

Your initial inspection and claim review are free. If the insurance company paid you fairly, we will tell you. If you are owed more, we will identify the damage and explain the amount.

We build the claim with photographs, measurements and an itemized estimate. Then we negotiate with the insurance company for the covered damage. You have a professional responsible for presenting the facts.

How we check your payment

Actual damage. Accurate measurements. Industry-standard estimating.

We prepare detailed repair estimates using Xactimate, an industry-standard platform for estimating property insurance repairs. Its researched regional pricing gives us an established foundation for calculating repair costs.

We identify the actual damage, check the necessary repair components and enter the correct materials and measurements. Then we compare our findings with the insurer’s estimate and payment.

See how we determine whether your payment is fair

What makes an estimate complete?

The software needs the right information. Missing repair items, incorrect quantities or a different material grade can change an estimate even when both parties use Xactimate.

The work behind the claim

The details matter.
So does the explanation.

A repair estimate and an insurance payment can differ for several reasons. Some concern the work included. Others involve pricing, deductibles, depreciation or the policy itself.

We put the photographs, measurements and repair estimate together. Then we explain the damage to the insurance company and negotiate for the payment you are owed.

Your contractor repairs the damage. Your public adjuster represents your claim.

A contractor can inspect damage, prepare a repair estimate and discuss technical repair details with the insurance company. Representing you in claim negotiations is a separate responsibility.

When you retain Under Paid Claim LLC, we document the damage, prepare the estimate and negotiate supported claim amounts on your behalf. We do not perform the repairs on claims we adjust.

Understand who represents your claim

Texas law and Texas Department of Insurance guidance

Texas Insurance Code §4102.163 restricts contractors from acting as public adjusters on property where they provide or may provide contracting services. Texas Department of Insurance also explains that contractors may provide estimates and discuss technical information.

Share the property location, claim status and your main concern. You do not need every document ready.

02

Understand the offer before hiring us.

We explain the work, answer your questions and put the agreement in writing before we represent you.

03

Build and present the claim.

We inspect the damage, prepare the estimate and deal directly with the insurance company on your behalf.

Our financial interests are aligned with yours.

We only get paid when we get you additional money. So we will tell you the truth. If the insurance company paid you fairly, we will tell you at no cost. If you are owed more, we will show you why and pursue it.

If our review identifies an underpayment, we’ll show you the amount our inspection, documentation and estimate support—and explain why. Our financial incentive is to pursue every dollar supported by your damage and policy. We do not deliberately undervalue your damage or promise an inflated recovery to win your business.

A few useful answers

Questions before you contact us.

What is a public insurance adjuster?

A licensed public adjuster works for you, the insured property owner. We inspect the damage, prepare your estimate and negotiate the claim with your insurance company.

Can I contact you after the insurer has already paid?

Yes. Tell us what was paid and why you believe the claim needs another look. Whether further work is appropriate depends on the policy, records, deadlines and claim circumstances.

Does a low check always mean the claim was underpaid?

No. Deductibles, depreciation, limits and coverage terms can affect payment. The estimate and policy need to be reviewed before drawing that conclusion.

Can you guarantee more money or a faster decision?

No. Results and timing depend on the facts, coverage and claim process. We can explain the work proposed for your situation.

Do you repair the property or provide legal representation?

Our firm provides public adjusting and coordinates appropriate experts. Repair work, legal representation and engineering services are performed by separately qualified providers.

What should I have ready?

Bring your policy, insurer estimate, decision letter, photographs and repair estimates if you have them. Do not wait to contact us because a document is missing. We will explain what is needed.

Our fee

10% of new money.
No fee on prior payments.

Our only charge is 10% of new money paid on your claim, due when that money is received. There are no additional expenses or charges. If no new money is received, no payment is required. We explain the terms in a written agreement before representation begins.
