Republic Claims—Public Insurance Adjusters Helping Homeowners and Businesses in New York and Nationwide
In life, you have to expect the unexpected and plan for it. That’s one of the functions of insurance—to ensure that your home or business is protected when unforeseen circumstances occur. Far too often, though, when you turn to your insurance company to provide the coverage you need, you run into delays, denials or attempts to pay far less than you need or than what your policy promises.
It’s all a part of the way insurance companies operate. They are for-profit entities, whose allegiances are not to you (though they may indicate otherwise), but to their shareholders. To maximize their profits and, accordingly, their value to shareholders, they’ll use a number of tactics and strategies to minimize the amount they pay you. That’s when you need Republic Claims.
At Republic Claims, we are public insurance adjustors. Though our staff members have all worked for insurance companies in the past, we are now advocates for homeowners and businesses in Nassau County and across the country, using the skills and knowledge we gained in the insurance industry to help our customers get full and fair payments on property and casualty insurance claims. Because we are paid a percentage of your settlement, we always have an incentive to maximize the amount you receive.
Trust Your Property and Casualty Claims to Republic Claims
At Republic, we employ a staff of experienced property and casualty insurance professionals. Frank Rivela, our founder and president, has been in the business for more than four decades and is one of about 100 insurance professionals around the world with the esteemed designation of Senior Professional Public Adjustor. Under his guidance and leadership, we have long been active members of the National Association of Public Insurance Adjustors (NAPIA), ensuring the highest standards of ethics and professionalism to every claim we handle.

At Republic Claims, we are constantly seeking out new ways to ensure that we meet or exceed the expectations of our clients:

We now have the resources in-house to accurately determine your legal rights under a policy, correctly project your total losses, and even help you secure temporary living or business quarters while repairs are being made.

Let Republic Claims Help Maximize Your Nassau County Property or Casualty Claim
In the aftermath of a property or casualty loss, most policyholders make their first call to their insurer. When you do this, it immediately gives your insurer the upper hand, as the insurance company has far more knowledge about the process and your potential recovery than you do.
Instead, make that first call to Republic Claims. Let us be your advocate from day one. Before we notify your insurer of your claim, we’ll carefully examine your policy, so that we fully understand your rights and potential limitations. Because we are staffed by insurance industry veterans, we know the strategies and tactics insurance companies will use to try to pay you as little as possible. We’ll take proactive measures to determine the full extent of your losses, so that we can help you get a fair and reasonable settlement.
We will be your liaison with insurers throughout the claims process, handling every detail. We know how to quickly and accurately determine all potential restoration/reconstruction costs and will prepare a thorough accounting of all lost contents.
When we advocate for businesses, we will work directly with your risk management or property/casualty department, if desired, to develop a plan to resolve your claim with minimal interruption of daily business operations. We will also assess the impact a property or casualty loss will business revenues or operations, such as potential rental income, and can calculate the total projected cost of any required disaster recovery.
