Commercial Property Damage Claims in Florida
Commercial claims are underpaid in the places an owner can’t see — and that’s the whole game
Every commercial loss — hotel, office, retail, industrial, medical, multi-family, association — shares one pattern: the carrier’s first estimate captures the visible damage and quietly omits the rest. Hidden and secondary damage, code and ordinance upgrades, matching, and above all the business interruption and loss of rents are where the real money sits, and where carriers pay least. A licensed public adjuster documents the full covered loss and negotiates for what your policy actually owes, across every commercial property type we handle. That is exactly the gap we close.
Public Loss Adjusters, LLC provides expert representation for business and property owners across Florida. Our firm specializes in commercial property damage claims — from high-rise offices and retail stores to hotels, warehouses, and government facilities. We help you navigate the insurance process, enforce statutory timelines, and recover the full value of your loss under §626.854 and §627.70131 of the Florida Statutes.

⏰ Florida law limits how long you have to reopen or supplement an underpaid claim
If your Florida claim was closed or underpaid, Fla. Stat. 627.70132 generally gives you a running window to act — but the clock starts on your date of loss, not the day you discover the shortfall. In most cases that means you may have less time than you think.
Your policy’s own notice terms can be shorter, and every claim is different. Figuring out whether your window is still open — and acting before it closes — is exactly what we handle. Call (352) 353-4556 and we’ll tell you where you stand.

Florida Commercial Property Damage Claims — We Work for You, Not the Insurer
When a commercial property is damaged, far more is at stake than a single room — there’s the structure, tenant space, inventory, and often business interruption income. Insurers know it, and they scope commercial losses to their advantage. As licensed Florida public adjusters, Public Loss Adjusters, LLC represents commercial property owners, boards, and managers on denied, underpaid, and storm-damaged claims across Central Florida and statewide — documenting the full loss and negotiating for the payout your policy actually owes.
Commercial properties we handle
Every property type carries its own coverage traps. Pick yours — each has a dedicated Florida claim guide:
How we handle your commercial claim
1. Inspect & Document
We inspect the full property, photograph every point of damage, and build a detailed, defensible loss estimate.
2. Prove the Loss
Structure, contents, code upgrades, and business-interruption income — we quantify what the carrier’s adjuster leaves out.
3. Negotiate
We deal with your insurer directly and, where needed, invoke appraisal or mediation to break a stalled or lowball claim.
4. Settle & Rebuild
You get the funds to restore the property and resume operations — without fighting the carrier alone.
Your rights & the deadlines that protect you
Under Florida Statute 627.70131, your insurer must acknowledge your claim within 7 days and pay or deny it within 60 days of receiving notice, and it must state the reasons for a denial in writing. We track every deadline and build a complete claim file suitable for appraisal, mediation, or Department of Financial Services review. Licensed public adjusters operate under Florida Statute 626.854.
Commercial claim questions
What does a commercial public adjuster cost?
We work on contingency — a percentage of what we recover. If there’s no recovery, there’s no fee.
My claim was already paid — can it be reopened?
Often, yes. Florida allows supplemental and reopened claims within statutory windows. We review your file statewide and pursue what was underpaid.
Do you handle business-interruption losses?
Yes — lost income, extra expense, and continuing costs are frequently the largest, most under-documented part of a commercial claim.
