Short answer: A Miramar public adjuster represents you, not your insurer, on Broward County property claims, and under Fla. Stat. 626.854 the fee is capped and contingent. Miramar's master-planned housing skews newer, so most disputes here are wear-and-tear arguments a carrier raises to discount storm-driven roof damage. Ocean Point Claims (FL DFS #W829547) ties the loss to a specific wind event with roof-age and damage documentation and holds carriers to the deadlines in Fla. Stat. 627.70131.

About Miramar property insurance claims

Miramar's newer master-planned construction means most roof claims turn on storm-specific damage vs. normal aging: carriers commonly argue wear-and-tear. Roof age documentation, specific wind-event correlation, and a full Xactimate re-estimate typically move these claims.


Claim types we handle in Miramar

Ocean Point Claims represents Miramar homeowners and commercial property owners across every major claim type:

Why Miramar insurance claims are often underpaid

The pattern in Miramar matches the broader Florida market:

  1. Scope reduction: carrier inspectors miss or minimize damage that a full Xactimate estimate captures.
  2. Cause-of-loss disputes: sudden water losses recharacterized as gradual to fit an exclusion.
  3. Deductible manipulation: hurricane deductibles applied to losses that are not, in fact, from a named storm.
  4. Delay beyond statutory response deadlines: violates Fla. Stat. 627.70131 but requires documented pressure to correct.

How a Miramar public adjuster changes the outcome

  1. Free claim review: at no cost, we assess whether public-adjuster representation is likely to materially improve your settlement.
  2. On-site inspection: a licensed Ocean Point adjuster documents the full scope of loss.
  3. Policy + scope review: every relevant coverage is identified and matched against the damage.
  4. Xactimate re-estimate: reflecting the actual cost to repair or replace.
  5. Negotiation: line by line, with statute-grounded demand letters where appropriate.
  6. Resolution: by negotiation, appraisal, mediation, or Civil Remedy Notice escalation.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Miramar public adjuster cost?
Ocean Point works on contingency: no recovery, no fee. Fla. Stat. 626.854 caps a Florida public adjuster's fee at 20% of the claim payment, and at 10% on claims tied to a declared state of emergency during the first year after the declaration. You also have 10 days to cancel the written contract.
What are the deadlines to file a Miramar claim?
Under Fla. Stat. 627.70132 you generally have one year from the date of loss to report a new hurricane or windstorm claim and 18 months to file a supplemental. Once filed, Fla. Stat. 627.70131 requires the insurer to pay or deny the claim within 60 days of notice, subject to the statute's conditions.
The carrier called my Miramar roof damage wear and tear. Can you push back?
Yes. Because Miramar's housing skews newer, carriers lean on age and wear to discount sudden wind or debris damage. We document the wind event, the pattern of damage, and the roof's condition, and where a discontinued material makes a patch impossible we apply Fla. Stat. 626.9744 on matching.
What if my Miramar claim was denied or underpaid?
We build an independent scope, assemble the proof, and negotiate directly with the carrier. Where the insurer stalls or acts in bad faith, Fla. Stat. 624.155 provides remedies and we can pursue a [Civil Remedy Notice](/services/civil-remedy-notice-crn/). Independent review supports getting help early: OPPAGA's study of Citizens claims (Report No. 10-06) found policyholders who used a public adjuster recovered materially more than those who did not, with the largest gap on hurricane claims ([oppaga.fl.gov](https://oppaga.fl.gov/Documents/Reports/10-06.pdf)). See our approach to [denied, lowballed, or underpaid claims](/claim-types/denied-lowballed-underpaid-insurance-claim/).
