NO RECOVERY, NO FEE

You don’t pay our fee unless we recover.

Homeowners ask this first. American Financial Claims works on contingency: if we do not obtain a recovery, you do not owe a public adjusting fee. The claim review is free.

  • No recovery → no firm feeWhen we are hired, the fee is a percentage of the recovery we help obtain. Terms are in writing before you sign.
  • Fee caps apply under Florida lawPublic adjuster fees are regulated. Exact percentages and what they apply to are disclosed in the written agreement. See how fees work and licensing.
  • Your deductible still appliesRepresentation does not eliminate your policy deductible. We help pursue the payment your policy supports.

Past results and published research are not a guarantee of similar outcomes. Every claim depends on the policy, the facts, documentation, and the carrier’s position. Call (239) 444-8101 for a free consultation.

  • I can't thank American Financial Claims enough for their help. We had water damage in our home and didn't know where to start. They took over the claim immediately, kept us updated every step of the way, and made sure everything was properly covered. Extremely knowledgeable and dedicated. 10/10 recommend their services to anyone needing a public adjuster

  • I barely ever write reviews, but I really want to express my gratitude to Armando and his team. I honestly can't say enough good things about my experience with this firm. After a storm caused some damage to my yard and property, I was completely overwhelmed and had no idea I could even recover money for the damage. I really thought I was just going to have to deal with the repairs myself til a family member recommended Armando.

    They made the entire process so much easier than I expected, kept me informed, and handled EVERYTHING for me. I was shocked at how quickly everything came together and even more shocked when I received a settlement for much more than I ever thought possible.

    From the time they filed the claim for me till the time I receive my check has been no more than two months! Usually, when you ask people who are dealing with a claim how long it takes to get paid, they say months or years so I was just completely taken back. I was honestly prepared to wait for at least a year.

    I'm incredibly grateful I found them. They took a situation that felt hopeless and turned it into such a huge relief for me. I would absolutely highly recommend them to anyone dealing with property damage or an insurance claim. Reach out to AFClaims, you will be happy you did! 😊

They were always patient with me and took the time to make sure I understood everything. I'm very thankful for the help I received and for how comfortable they made me feel. I would sincerely recommend them to anyone who needs their services.

  • I had a great experience with AF Claims. The team was professional, helpful, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for assistance with an insurance claim.

  • The team at AF Claims got my storm claim paid after my insurance denied it. I don't know how they do it but they made it happen for me. Highly recommend them and will use them again if anything else happens in my home. 5 stars the best!!

Common questions

Schedule a consult ↗︎
Can you help after I’ve already been paid?

We can review the payment, estimate and supporting records. A payment does not tell us by itself whether the full repair scope has been addressed.

What does the free review include?

An initial conversation about the damage, claim status and available documents, plus discussion of an inspection where appropriate. Representation terms are explained separately.

How do you pursue the strongest supported result?

We inspect the damage, identify missing scope, prepare detailed estimates and organize the evidence supporting your claim. Results depend on the policy, facts and documentation.

Can I start with the documents I already have?

Yes. Start with what you have. We will help identify the next useful records and build from there.

How do we meet?

Start by phone, arrange a Zoom consultation or ask about a property inspection. In-person visits are by appointment.

No recovery. No fee.

Start with the file you already have.
