This session will provide an overview of the three types of licensed California Public Adjusters and the scope of authority each holds. Attendees will also learn about the additional regulations that apply to Public Adjusters during a Declared Disaster, a critical area where compliance issues often arise. The training will further cover the legal requirement for Public Adjusters to maintain a trust account for managing client claim funds. Whether you’re investigating claims or working to strengthen fraud detection efforts, this session will equip you with the regulatory knowledge needed to recognize compliant versus non-compliant PA conduct.
