Why I Became a Public Adjuster: A Commitment to Helping Homeowners

The Core Principle of Our Company

At Panther Public Adjusting, we operate by one founding principle: “Don’t worry about making money; worry about taking care of homeowners.” This philosophy is the backbone of everything we do. When I first got involved in public adjusting, I didn’t just find a career—I found a calling.

Public adjusting isn’t just about filing claims or dealing with insurance companies. It’s about helping real people—people who have been wronged by their insurers, people who feel lost in the claims process, and people who simply need someone in their corner fighting for them. I fell in love with this profession because it allows me to make a real difference in people’s lives, often during their most challenging times.

How I Fell in Love with Public Adjusting

Insurance claims can be complicated, frustrating, and overwhelming for homeowners. Many don’t realize that they don’t have to accept the first offer from their insurance company—and that’s where I come in.

Helping homeowners navigate this difficult process quickly became a passion for me. I saw firsthand how unfairly many insurance companies treated their policyholders, undervaluing claims, delaying payments, or outright denying legitimate claims. I knew I had the skills and knowledge to level the playing field and advocate for homeowners.

One of the cases that solidified my commitment to this work was Wendy’s story—a case that still drives me today.

Wendy’s Story: A Case That Changed My Life

I’ll never forget Wendy. She was one of my early clients, and her case exemplifies why I became a public adjuster.

Wendy was an elderly widow living in the Florida Panhandle when Hurricane Michael devastated her home. The storm left her house in ruins—every time it rained, water poured into her home. Her floors were covered in mold, her carpets were ripped out, and her house was practically unlivable. Yet, she had been living in those terrible conditions for over a year after the hurricane.

Her friend, shocked at the state of her home, asked why she hadn’t fixed the damage. Wendy’s answer was heartbreaking:

🗣️ “My insurance company told me they only owe me $618. I can’t fix my home for $618, so there’s nothing I can do.”

She had given up hope because she believed her insurance company was right. As an elderly widow on a fixed income, she felt she had no options.

Thankfully, a friend who had worked with me before referred her to me, saying, “Call Mendy. He helped me, and he can help you too.”


Fighting for Wendy: Reopening Her Claim

When Wendy called, I immediately went to her house and inspected the damage myself. What I found was shocking. Her insurance company had grossly underpaid her, ignoring extensive storm damage, mold contamination, and structural issues.

We reopened her claim, gathered the necessary documentation, and scheduled a meeting with her insurance company.

📞 Then came one of the best phone calls of my life. I got to call Wendy and tell her:

🗣️ “Wendy, your nightmare is over. We got you another $68,000.”

That money meant she could finally repair her home, live in safe conditions again, and move forward with her life.

Seeing the relief and gratitude in Wendy’s voice reminded me why I do what I do.

Why I Do What I Do

Public adjusting isn’t just a job for me—it’s a mission. Wendy’s story is just one of many homeowners I’ve been able to help over the years. Each case reminds me that insurance companies don’t always play fair, and homeowners deserve someone fighting for their rights.

Every day, I wake up knowing I have the opportunity to:

✔️ Help families rebuild their homes and lives after disasters. ✔️ Hold insurance companies accountable for fair claim settlements. ✔️ Educate homeowners about their rights so they don’t get taken advantage of. ✔️ Ensure people never feel powerless against their insurance providers. ✔️ Be a voice for those who might otherwise be ignored.

If I can change just one more homeowner’s life the way I helped Wendy, then I know I’m doing exactly what I was meant to do.

The Emotional Impact of Public Adjusting

One of the most rewarding aspects of this job is seeing the sheer relief and gratitude in a homeowner’s eyes when they realize they finally have someone on their side. Many people feel isolated and defeated when dealing with their insurance companies, unsure of where to turn or what to do next.

I remember another case where a family had their claim denied after extensive water damage from a storm. They were forced to live in unsafe conditions, with growing mold, unstable walls, and a leaking roof. After months of delays and denials, they felt hopeless—until they called us. After reopening their claim and negotiating aggressively with their insurer, we secured them six figures in additional payouts. The moment we told them the news, they broke down in tears—finally, after months of struggling, they could move forward.

These moments reaffirm why public adjusting is not just about the money—it’s about restoring hope, security, and dignity to homeowners.
