John and his team were helpful and professional throughout the process! Incredible experience!Posted on Dianne EdsonAugust 11, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I don't know what I would have done without John! He dealt with my insurance company from start to finish, ensuring I received coverage for my loss. It was touch and go for a while.. We had a major flood in our home. Four days of running water pouring through the house turned out to be a gut job.. I wasn't even sure if the insurance company would cover the damage, due to specific language in the policy. John represented us with all aspects of our claim. He kept me informed every step of the way. I finally settled with the insurance company, thanks to John's diligent representation. He fought for every penny possible He knows exactly how to handle claims. He's very professional. Let John handle your claim. You will have peace of mind. I can't say enough good things about him. I would highly recommend John to handle your insurance claim. Thank you, John!

Comprehensive Representation
Expert Insurance Claim Representation for Homeowners and Businesses
We work exclusively for homeowners and business owners, guiding them through every stage of the claims process with clarity and advocacy. Our mission is simple: protect your rights, document your loss properly, and fight for the full settlement you’re entitled to.
Having worked with both insurance companies and national disaster teams has given L & M Public Adjusters the unique advantage of understanding the difficult and often long-winded process of filing a claim from both the company’s and the client’s side. It’s an advantage that truly gives L & M Public Adjusters the edge over other firms, especially in the claims of natural disasters and catastrophic loss, when business and home owners can be easily slighted out of receiving fair compensation by big insurance companies.
L & M Public Adjusters was founded on the belief that policyholders deserve fair, well-documented, and professionally represented claims—not the rushed, undervalued settlements that insurance carriers often push forward.

Your Advocate for Fair Settlements
Why Hire L & M Public Adjusters?
The insurance company employs its own adjusters and they offer to pay a sum as they see fit; in other words, what is to their advantage.
On the other hand, as a Public Adjuster, we are the exclusive representative for the policy holder, that’s you, and we work diligently on your behalf toward a more favorable adjustment and final settlement.
How Will L & M Public Adjusters Assist You?
We will advise and assist you, the policy holder, in presenting your claim. Remember, in as much as the insurance policy puts the burden on you the insured to prove damages and to present a detailed account of your loss, having a licensed public insurance adjuster (or claims advocate) on your side, levels the playing field.
