Those individuals that are hired by insurance companies, banks, or other financial institutions in order to assess damage and to determine the proper reimbursement to be made to the claimant are referred to as adjusters. Typically, in order to come up with fair settlement for both the person filing the claim and the company against whom the claim is filed adjusters act as a go-between.

Adjusters able to give estimates in many situations
Adjusters are trained such that they are able to give estimates in many situations, though appraisers are sometimes called upon to provide more thorough estimates. Natural disasters can cause incredible damage to homes and businesses, which must be totaled up by the adjusters in order to determine the exact monetary value a bank, government agency, or insurance agency should pay the client.
