Chicago Adjusting

Chicago Adjusting is a public adjusting firm that represents home and business owners in insurance claims for property damage. Public adjusters work for the policyholder rather than the insurance company, and the firm's work centers on helping clients document and present their losses. The firm says it handles exterior damage from strong winds, flying debris and hail, which can be hard to spot without an experienced eye.

The office is at 7312 W Lawrence Ave. in Harwood Heights. A free initial consultation is offered, and a 24-hour toll-free line is available for clients who want to speak with a public adjuster right away. The office is open weekdays during business hours and closed on weekends.
