Midway through the rainy winter of 2022/2023, we noticed water damage in our ADU entryway. I immediately called our insurance company (State Farm) to file a claim. After a few days, we had an adjuster come out and assess the damage and ultimately approve a claim for $4k. The extent of the visible damage was focused near the door, including hardwood flooring, drywall, casing, and the door itself. That amount seemed quite low but I went with it and called a few contractors to come out and take a look. Every single contractor said they would not work with the insurance company as they would not be willing to give an itemized quote as the State Farm requested. The last contractor I spoke with recommended I contact a public adjuster as he was almost certain there was more damage that was not visible. This was a completely new concept for me and I hesitated and decided to try to work with StateFarm to increase the amount. Needless to say, it was incredibly difficult to reach anyone on the phone at State Farm. After a week or so, I gave up and started looking for a public adjuster. George at SoCal Public Adjusters was the only person I connected with who was willing to work with a State Farm claim. He recommended I immediately have a StateFarm-approved restoration company come and assess the damage and potential mold issues. Sure enough, the water damage was far worse than we could see and mold was everywhere. As the restoration company started to demo all the areas affected by water, we could easily tell the damage far exceeded $4k. George calmly walked us through a detailed estimate to repair the damage. He reviewed our insurance policy and explained in detail what our coverage should include. Many of the line items of which we would have never thought to account for. George immediately went to work and connected with representative after representative from State Farm. State Farm acted as if we did not matter and that the amount would not increase. George was persistent and eventually the claim would get thrown over to 4 or 5 different "managers". It was clear he knew how to maneuver the insurance claim process and it was clear he knew more about our rights than the State Farm adjusters that were assigned to the claim. Although the process went on for nearly 7 months, George kept us updated regularly and with as much detail as we could ask for. He was open about the strategy and tactics he would use to make sure we were not ghosted by State Farm. In the end, our claim settled for more than 10x the original amount. We were able to repair/restore the damage beyond our satisfaction. I highly recommend speaking with SoCal Public Adjusters. read more

A fire broke out in the garage, which completely damaged the garage and everything inside. The smoke also damaged the entire house and all my personal belongings smelled like smoke. The insurance company tried to short change me but SoCal adjusters took over the claim entirely, sent over all the documentation and estimates to the insurance company and they ended up replacing my belongings and paid for all the damage to the house. I would have been in a tight spot if it wasn't for George. read more

My entire condo flooded due to a bad toilet water line hose. The water reached the kitchen and destroyed all the cabinets all the carpets in the bedrooms and wood flooring in living room. The insurance company sent out a rep and gave me a low ball offer that my contractor kept saying there's no way we can fix all these issues with that figure. I brought in two more contractors and they all agreed it was going to be 3x more expensive to repair it all. The insurance company wasn't having it. And they shut me out. Literally said take it or leave it. The HOA didn't even want to get involved and said it's my fault. Through a friend I was introduced to George. I didn't even know there is such a thing as a public adjuster. He was courteous and prompt and extremely knowledgeable . Came and inspected the house. Did a full report and went to bat against the insurance company. Guess what insurance did. Paid out every single penny they owed and I was able to get all the damage repaired and even brand new kitchen cabinets! You need George on your side! He told me his story. He was the inspector for the insurance companies for 15 years and was taught how to minimize loss. He finally got fed up and started his own practice going against all the companies he used to work for. He has the inside knowledge! read more

We had a HUGE water leak from a condensation line in our ceiling a few weeks back, and our current insurance company sent out an adjuster that wrote up an estimate for ONLY $10k to cover the massive scope of work. I called George to come out the following day after receiving that insufficient estimate, and not only was he ten times as knowledgeable, he ended up writing a new estimate for 7x the original proposal and coordinated with my insurance company (I did essentially nothing), and my insurance ended up fully covered the entire bill from the contractor we used! He is an absolute must if you want to not pay out of pocket, couldn't imagine what a mess we would have been in without him! Thank you again, George!! read more

My fridge had a small leak that damaged my flooring and cabinets. My greedy insurance company had an independent adjuster come out who wrote a simple estimate which wasn't enough to cover the cost of replacement. I reached out to SoCal and George took over the claim and not only wrote his own estimate and got me what I was owed, he guided me through the entire claims process. He took care of my living situation, personal items that got damaged and even helped during the construction process. Highly recommend SoCal. read more

I can't believe there are such selfless, considerate and helpful people like George. I live in Northern California, overwhelmed with dealing with my insurance about the water damage and trying to find the right public adjuster to help me with my situation. I submitted a request on Yelp and George was super quick to call me back. When he learnt that I live in Northern California, he immediately told me that he doesn't serve my area but was super kind to offer me his free advice for my situation and what steps and strategy I should follow to address my concerns. He was soooo thorough inspecting/investigating my situation and damages knowing that he won't be taking my case and spent more than 30 mins with me. I can't imagine how much vested he would be when he actually takes the case. I would absolutely recommend him for anyone looking to go at war with their insurance company. I am sure he'll be on your side and put in 1000% to take care of your best interest. read more

Back in 2017, our laundry machine got backed up and flooded our entire living room & kitchen. We had homeowners insurance and had Servpro come out immediately to open up the walls and set up fans to dry things out. After the insurance adjuster did his thing, we were surprised at how little we felt our insurance was willing to reimburse for the damage. One of our relatives referred us to an independent adjuster named Jorge to come out and give us a second opinion to counter what our insurance company was offering. After contacting their office we were quickly booked for an appointment with Gorge the following day for an inspection. The inspection lasted about 3 hours and was very thorough. George walked up through the entire process on how to deal with our insurance. We presented the 2nd opinion to our insurance company and through arbitration were able to be approved for the higher repair costs due to the old finishes we had. Thank you for standing up for what homeowners are due from their insurance companies Socal PAs! read more
