Deep gratitude to Mr. Richard Titus for his assistance with our insurance claim. Upon sustaining…read moreserious wind damage to townhouse siding, and after the insurance company offered a mere pittance (less than the deductible !), we discovered Richard at Smart Choice Public Adjuster. How fortunate for us ! His communications with the insurance company were well-informed, thoughtful, and firm. "Professional" is the word that comes to mind. It took a bit of time (insurance companies are not known for 'turning on a dime') but they DID change their mind and ultimately made a generous offer. I would describe Richard's style throughout as "polite tenaciousness." It worked. I strongly recommend Richard Titus's services to anyone faced with a home-repair insurance claim. Thank you Mr. Titus ! Good luck to all

I am very disappointed with my experience. The company did not honor the written scope of work that…read morewe agreed to and that I paid for. After the specifications were finalized, they changed the plans without my consent and refused to complete the project as originally promised. They also attempted to pressure me into paying for incomplete work, using statements about their "financial difficulty" to guilt me. As an elderly customer, this behavior felt manipulative and deeply unprofessional. I strongly advise others to get everything in writing and be cautious.

Our Council of Unit Owners hired WayneFrazier of Insurance Claims Specialist in April of 2023 after…read morean insurance loss in June of 2022 that caused significant water damage to three first floor condominiums and common area. We entered into the Appraisal process with our insurer in April of 2023. When Wayne was hired as our independent appraiser, most of the rebuild had already been completed. The required mitigation and reconstruction back to original specification condition was very complicated due to the structure originally serving as an office building before it was repurposed to luxury condominiums in 2020. Restoration work was well under way when Wayne was hired. Hiring an appraiser at this stage of the process is difficult for any appraiser. But Wayne spent countless hours onsite understanding the scope of the damage, mitigation and rebuild parameters. In addition, his knowledge of the appraisal process and required documentation was impressive. While maintaining complete independence, he guided us throughout the entire process. His effort resulted in an award that provided the association the needed money to restore and repair our homes to exactly the way they existed prior to the damage. Without Wayne's expertise and knowledge, we would have received less than 1/2 of the money from our insurer necessary to make the repairs. We are forever grateful for his hard work and no nonsense approach. Thank you Wayne for bringing 3 years of an insurance nightmare to a positive conclusion which has allowed our community to finally focus on living our lives.

He very honestly gave me a rundown of the process which included pricing, timing (may take months) and the possibility of needing an umpire. I trusted his honesty and transparency and he had great reviews online so I went with him, and am glad I did. The process did take about six months, but he was able to work with the insurance company's adjuster and get me 350% of what they originally offered me for my claim! His prices are reasonable and well worth the money, I was very pleased with the award. I hope I never need to make a claim again but I know who I would call!

I'm a realtor and I deal with a lot of title companies and Lakeside is hardest one I've ever had to…read morework with. Most title companies try to find a way to accomplish their clients' needs. This one does the opposite and some of the management (not all) are down right mean as hell! As real estate agents, we sometimes put money into properties and get reimbursed at the closing table and can add our expenses to the ALTA. I've done this with over a dozen other title agencies. But Lakeside does not allow reimbursements from the ALTA and sends all the proceeds to the seller (or buyer) and asks them to divvy it up post closing. I get it..it's their prerogative on whether they should have to do extra work or not by adding things to the ALTA, but I just feel like they should make it known in advance. I will say that my processor was great. But please stop hiring mean people in management!

They had a relative / friend post a star review. Isn't this odd. Their friend location is in South Carolina. The company responded I had a 4 bedroom house, yet they only "cleaned" (loosely saying the word "cleaned") 2. They arrived a 1:30pm and 3:00pm on the dot. As they were walking out I said did you clean this vinyl floor, the owner said yes. I replied there is no way, this looks the same. He told the lady to go get the swifter, she came in and was doing a half job for less then 5 minutes. I told them that is ok. Furthermore, I should have known they were going to be shady. Before purchasing the Groupon deal I called them and ask when I purchase the deal how soon can you come. The owner said if you purchase through us directly then we can come tomorrow, if you go through groupon it would be a few weeks to a month. I should have went with Groupon at least I would have had some accountable. Actually, I will call Groupon to inform them how this company is undercutting them and being shady.

I had never used a cleaning service before for my house. I did not know what expect. I put a request on Yelp and my request was submitted to 4 different cleaning service companies. Only 2 responded. I filled out the request at 4pm and got a response from this company immediately! They also were available to come next day, that's what I wanted. There was a guy and a girl who showed up ready to work. They took their time and did a GREAT job. A bit pricey so I could not afford s monthly cleaning but maybe once every 4 months. Kept me updated on arrival time. My first experience was good. I will use them again.
