Texas Adjuster License Types

Public Adjuster versus All Lines Adjuster

The Public Adjuster is hired by a homeowner and is paid a fee by that homeowner to act as an expert claim consultant when:

The claim is particularly complex, and the homeowner finds dealing with it to be overwhelming

The homeowner finds the Adjuster assigned by the insurance company too difficult to deal with

The homeowner believes there is covered damage and the insurer's adjuster says there is none

The insurer's adjuster submits an estimate that the homeowner believes to be incomplete and inaccurate

The All Lines Adjuster represents and is paid by the Insurance Company to handle its claims . As an employee (Staff Adjuster) or as an Independent Adjuster (under a contract for services.)

There is a separate exam and license for each discipline. It is possible to hold both licenses, though most practitioners commit to one or the other.

Are you Old School? Prefer to attend in person? No problem.

Two days. Houston classroom or Zoom. Weekend class for Public Adjusters and All Lines.

We cover the foundation in class. You finish the rest on the video course. This is not a cram course. One cannot expect to attend this two-day class and take the test the next day. This is a process.
