Professional Bio
David A. Eberly is a Public Adjuster with Jansen/Adjusters International who brings construction-management discipline to complex property claims across the Gulf Coast and Caribbean, incl. The Bahamas. With civil and architectural engineering training, David worked his way through college in the building trades, grounding his approach in means and methods, safety, and sequencing. He formerly held the Certified Construction Manager (CCM) credential through CMAA; that background guides his rigor in planning, procurement, scheduling, and cost control.
A proven catastrophe leader, David has mobilized for hurricanes, surge, flood, and smoke events. He stands up rapid-assessment programs, builds repeatable inspection workflows, and integrates aerial and 360° capture to access roofs and façades, map damage, and turn field conditions into defensible claim files. As an sUAS/drone pilot and field lead, he pairs imagery with observation to produce constructability-driven scopes that withstand scrutiny.
Before representing the insured, David worked on the defense side supporting carriers, engineers, and building-consultant teams. He also handled surety matters—performance/payment bond exposure, default management, tender/takeover, and cost-to-complete. That defense/surety lens helps him anticipate the questions that drive carrier decisions, close scope gaps early, and position files for reconciliation, appraisal, or litigation.
David’s practice spans triage and mitigation oversight through estimate development, O&L analysis, and business interruption/extra expense support. He collaborates with owners, contractors, and counsel, emphasizing communication and cost models grounded in construction. Whether the loss is a hospitality tower, senior-living campus, multifamily portfolio, or hurricane-impacted island property, his focus is consistent: accelerate recovery while documenting the full value owed—rooted in facts, field conditions, and the realities of rebuilding.
