I needed an appraiser for an insurance claim for roofing and siding in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. He kept his focus on providing me the very best result in my claim, including support with moving the process along as quickly as possible, finding an appropriate contractor for the work, handling communications with the insurer as needed. In a word, painless... he made a very stressful situation into a painless resolution in my financial favor. No baloney... service, honesty, clarity, competence, advocacy--- that's how I think of Ed Gallagher. Highly recommend .

He helped our family business through some incredibly trying times during the pandemic, as well as personally, with some home ownership issues. And every step of the way, he was there. With insight that frankly, I doubt most other public adjusters would have, and an understanding of each situation that few possess. Seriously, few companies, firms, vendors I've dealt with are as responsive, forthright, and professional.

Working with Blake was by far the most easiest and most seamless part of a long, unbelievably…read moreexpensive and frustrating home repair project due to damage from stucco failure. Blake was honest and upfront that contracting with his company might not make sense for a small home owners insurance claim because you can just do it yourself, but in our case, the 10% fee was totally worth not having to hassle with yet another element of this unexpected disaster. We believe he was also able to secure a higher payout because of his expertise. He showed up on time, when he said he would be there.

I don't think there are enough great things to say about Daniel Wixted, his professionalism and…read moretenacity. I've been a construction lender for over 20 years and know that the job of an insurance company is to collect premiums and not pay claims. We had a very tricky situation with mold behind the walls in the bathroom. From Day 1, Daniel was on the case, set his contract in place with us and went to work. After his inspection, he prepared an extremely detailed time and materials budget to submit to the insurance company and stayed on top of them. They of course denied the claim and Daniel rebutted with specific provisions in the mold section which after time, had the insurance company overturn their denial and paid 100% of the Daniel's estimate, without discounting any of the Daniels numbers. After the check came, Daniel arranged for the signature of the mortgage company and kept things smooth and communication flowing. This was the best professional experience that we've ever had and have Daniel to thank.

I didn't believe in Superman--at least not until I hired Leo Yeager after a broken valve in my…read moreattic flooded three floors of my home. From day one, Leo took charge, dealing directly with the insurance company and sparing me countless hours of stress, frustration, and uncertainty. He guided the claim process every step of the way and remained involved for months until the restoration was complete. What impressed me most was that Leo's help went beyond the insurance claim itself. When I had no idea where to begin with the reconstruction, he recommended a builder who did exceptional work and restored my home to a condition even better than before the flood. A major disaster became a manageable process because of Leo's expertise, responsiveness, and advocacy. I can't recommend him highly enough.

We hired Leo as our public adjuster for a complex insurance claim. Leo was the least professional /…read morecompetent service provider I have ever interacted with. He didn't add value to the process (despite his enormous fee), and his negative attitude made an already stressful process even more unpleasant. He failed to live up to any of his customer service promises. Simply stated, I would never hire or recommend him to anyone else, even if his services were free. Leo displayed an alarming lack of understanding/recollection of our claim, missing major items (totaling nearly $100K). He couldn't be bothered to review pictures, claim documents, etc. to identify major missing items--that burden fell entirely to me and my family. Leo was not an effective or eager advocate on our behalf. He was consistently argumentative and demeaning. He reminded us on several occasions that he was "too busy" to keep our claim straight with all of the other things he had going on. To illustrate, below are 2 examples (of many) that show his carelessness and lack of attention to detail. 1) After Leo suggested (based on his "17 years of experience") that we should take the initial (very low) offer from insurance, we asked why there was no allowance for packing/storing all of the contents of our home. He said "that should be in there," but when we pointed out that we didn't see it, he said "oh, insurance must have taken that out--I had asked for it originally." So either Leo asked for it and failed to notice that they mistakenly didn't include it, or he forgot to ask for it but didn't want to tell us that. I'm not sure which is worse, but in either case, there was a very obvious $20K item he missed that was only discovered because we reviewed the 40 page insurance estimate in detail. No apology from him either--it was as if we inconvenienced him by discovering his major oversight. 2) Near the end of the claim, we sent Leo a document with ~15 open items we felt needed to be addressed (including pictures and original receipts). Rather than reviewing the details and thoughtfully responding, he replied that our asks were "frivolous" and "ridiculous" and that he no longer wished to continue representing us (and further demanded his payment in full and threatened with imposing late fees if we didn't pay him, despite the claim not being settled yet). After discontinuing our relationship with Leo, we submitted those same questions directly to the insurance carrier adjuster. After a pleasant 30 minute conversation, they approved 14 of the 15 items (an addl.~$50K). This made it abundantly clear that Leo was the issue all along. He either didn't understand the details of our claim sufficiently, or was an ineffective communicator with our insurer, or was uninterested in investing the extra time it would take to reach the appropriate settlement and just wanted his "cut" so he could move on to the next. If you are thinking of hiring Leo, I would strongly suggest either not hiring a public adjuster at all or hiring someone else. Leo was an expensive, ineffective, and frustrating headache, rather than a competent and knowledgeable advocate who made the process easy and fair.

I signed the contract with them which I have a copy. And I received a letter from my insurance company saying they sent out a check on December 6,2017 made out to APLC and Eloise Sanders. I have Power of attorney over Eloise. The check is for $8,495! APLC was supposed to only collect 15% of the total. The owner of the company and the person that handles my claim name is Barry Malem but my caller ID says Barry Jones. I had been reaching out and Barry has been giving me the run around saying the check hasn't cleared and he's been sick etc. he even went so far as to tell me that the mail was delayed due to the holidays then saying it snowed and now they won't even answer from my phone number. I spoke with my home owners insurance accounting department today (January 12,2018) and they told me not only did the check Clear on December 12,2017 but also they forged my signature as POA on the check as well! Now there is no way I could've signed because we are in Alabama! This APLC company is a scam! They received a check for $8,495 to get our roof fixed and they won't give us our money! They keep telling us that the mortgage company hasn't cleared the check etc! I can't believe they would do this to people especially since it's freezing cold and we need our roof fixed!
