Why Choose Advocate Claims Public Adjusters

When educated consumers have an insurance claim, they understand the value of calling a public insurance adjuster before they call their insurance company. Advocate Claims Public Adjusters' clients are some of the most educated and satisfied consumers in Florida. Their Testimonials Speak For Themselves - View Testimonials

According to the government study mentioned above, “Policyholders with Public Adjuster representation typically received higher settlements than those without public adjusters. Policyholders filing catastrophe claims in 2008 and 2009 generally received larger insurance settlements than policyholders who did not hire these persons. The difference in payments was larger for claims to 2005 hurricanes, with public adjusters resulting in payments that were 747% higher.” While we cannot offer you any recovery guarantees, our service generally pays for itself many times over.

Please Note: All claim reporting goes on your claim record when you call your insurance agent or company, even when your claim may not be covered. Inquiries and non-covered insurance claims could cause your premiums to increase.

We service both business and residential property claims. In addition to our comprehensive insurance adjuster services, we also provide a complete range of appraisal and construction repair services. Please see Services for a complete menu of services and Construction Services for more information.

Steven David Venook, President, Advocate Claims Public Adjusters

Serving South Florida including Broward, Miami and Palm Beach County.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

As a past assistant to Mr. Venook, since 2004, I have enjoyed learning from him and watching how he respects his clients. Mr. Venook continually reminded me that his client’s are his first priority. I also learned that Mr. Venook success comes from paying close attention to detail. This was a great learning experience to be taught.

The Federated National Insurance Company adjuster under-measured my screen enclosure by 1000 square feet and paid me below market rates for the repair. Either their adjuster did not know what he was doing or perhaps they did it on purpose!  Thank you for reopening my insurance claim and getting double what they initially offered.

Advocate Claim Service did an excellent job assisting us in our property damage claim. Atlantic Preferred Insurance Company was reluctant to pay for our mold damage. Mr. Venook made sure we were treated fairly and the mold was removed from our home and paid for by Atlantic Preferred Insurance Company. I will recommend Mr. Venook to anyone who has an insurance claim.

Mr & Mrs L
Weston, Florida

We had water damage from a broken sewer line at our house. The independent adjuster that represented New Hampshire Insurance Company was new at his job and ignored much of the damage that I showed to him. The adjuster was very slow to respond as I did not get his first estimate for three months, and his estimate was not enough to repair my home. Nobody but Mr. Venook cared that I had sewage backing up in my home during this long claim process. With Advocate Claim Service help we finally got a fair settlement that was approximately six times more then the first estimate from my insurance company. I have learned do not try to negotiate a settlement without the help of Mr. Venook.

On behalf of our community and board of directors I want to thank you for your professional services. Despite the cantankerous members on the board, you persevered in our behalf for over three years assisting us in our State Farm Hurricane Wilma Insurance claim. State Farm initially offered us 800k and you succeeded in getting us 2.7 million, our association is in much better financial condition because of your work. During our long road to recovery we had also hired three legal firms to represent us. Unlike the attorneys’ fees, your fees were totally cost effective!  More importantly your advice was the only advice that was consistently in the best interests of our community. As we approach 2012, we are still trying to get monies from State Farm Insurance Company. Without the 1,100 pages of documentation that you maintained, we would have had no chance in this endeavor.

Thomas Villanueva, President
Boca Raton, Florida

Steven’s idea of good service to his clients is to make every effort possible on their behalf. He does not understand the word “no” which is exactly why you would hire him to represent your interests against a carrier in an insurance claim. If you find him, you will have someone who will take good care of you.

Adrian N., Attorney
North Miami, Florida
