OR Public Adjuster case studies
OR Public Adjuster · Put your knowledge to work in context.
The Oregon public adjuster credential is a producer license line issued through the Oregon Division of Financial Regulation (DFR), the state agency that describes its mission as protecting Oregonians' access to fair products and services through education, regulation, and consumer assistance. Public adjusters represent policyholders - not insurers - in negotiating first-party property claims, so the license suits people with claims, construction, or restoration backgrounds who want to work on the insured's side of a loss.
