			From Wikipedia, “There are three classes of insurance adjusters: staff adjusters (employed by an insurance company or self-insured entity), independent adjusters (independent contractors hired by the insurance company) and Public adjusters (employed by the policyholder). "Company" or "Independent" adjusters can only legally represent the rights of an insurance company.”
