- 02On-Site InspectionWithin 1 week
- 03Claim Package PreparationDocumented scope
- 04Negotiation & SettlementCarrier dialogue
A fair fight for Georgia policyholders.
After a property loss, the insurance company sends its own team. We even the table — with documentation, policy expertise, and direct negotiation focused on your recovery.
"The policy is a contract. We hold the carrier to it — line by line."
- 01
We represent you.
Licensed public adjusters owe a duty to the policyholder. The insurance company has its own adjuster. You should have one too.
- 02
Documented, defensible claims.
Comprehensive scope, photo evidence, and estimating standards that hold up through negotiation, supplements, and appraisal.
- 03
Georgia-licensed expertise.
We know Georgia statutes, policy forms, and how the carriers writing policies in Athens and the surrounding areas actually handle claims.
- 04
Aligned with your outcome.
Our work is performance-based. When you recover more, we recover more — there is no incentive to settle short.
Claim representation across every major property loss.
Whether the loss just occurred or your claim has been denied, delayed, or underpaid — we can help you understand your options.

You handle the repairs —
we handle the claim support.
Vertex Public Adjusting supports policyholders with claim documentation, policy review, damage evaluation, and carrier communication — while contractors stay focused on repair and restoration work.
- 01Policy review, documented scope, and direct carrier communication
- 02You keep the repair relationship — we support the claim process
- 03Fewer mid-job surprises, disputes, and stalled projects
- 04Licensed claim handling designed to protect the policyholder and keep roles clear
We do not purchase leads or pay for referrals. Our role is to support the policyholder's claim while contractors remain focused on the repair relationship.
Contractor
When potential covered damage or claim issues are identified, the contractor can let the property owner know independent claim support is available.
Public Adjuster
Vertex works directly with the policyholder on claim documentation, policy review, damage evaluation, and communication with the insurance carrier.
Homeowner
A properly documented and resolved claim helps repairs move forward with fewer delays, disputes, and claim-related interruptions.
A public adjuster is a state-licensed insurance professional who represents the policyholder — not the insurance company — in the documentation, preparation, and negotiation of a property insurance claim. The carrier sends its own adjuster to protect its interests; a public adjuster levels the field for you.
The carrier's adjuster works for the carrier and evaluates your claim from the insurance company's perspective. A public adjuster works for you, owes you a duty of representation, and prepares the claim from your side of the policy.
Public adjusting in Georgia is typically performance-based — fees are a percentage of the recovery. We discuss exact terms during your free consultation so you know what to expect before you sign anything.
Yes. We routinely review denied, delayed, and underpaid claims. After reviewing your policy, the carrier's file, and the loss itself, we tell you honestly whether there is something to pursue — including supplements, re-opens, or appraisal.
No. Vertex is based in Athens and serves homeowners and property owners across Athens and the surrounding Northeast Georgia communities. We're licensed across the State of Georgia and can work statewide where it makes sense for a claim.
As early as possible — ideally before you give a recorded statement or accept a settlement. Mitigation duties, notice deadlines, and the strength of the evidence record all change with time. Even if the loss happened weeks or months ago, it is still worth a free conversation.
Yes. Our public adjusters are licensed by the State of Georgia. Licensing information is available on request and is required to legally adjust claims on behalf of policyholders.
