Claims may include financial losses involving business interruption, rental income, improvements, additional expenses, etc.

The Public Adjuster category includes three types of members -- Regular Members, Associate Members and Independent Contractor Members.   Individual owners, partners and officers in a public insurance adjusting company must be enrolled as Regular Members.   All non-clerical employees must be enrolled as Associate Members.   Public Adjusters who perform services on a full-time or part-time basis for or on behalf of Regular Members, but do not fit in either the Regular or Associate Member categories, must be enrolled as Independent Contractor Members.

Every Regular Member and Associate Member has access to all services and activities, and is entitled to vote in any meeting, election or ballot process.   Independent Contractor Members are not eligible to vote.
