Global Patriot Adjusters is built around one promise and one man's expertise. President Marc Lancaric, a wind-claims specialist, frames the job in the plainest terms: just as your insurance company has its own interest in mind, we as your public adjuster have only your interest as our focus. The firm does not just provide a service; it aims to be a true partner in bringing about every dollar deserved.
The reach is unusually wide for a specialist shop. Lancaric personally holds public-adjuster licenses across more than a dozen states, Florida, Louisiana, Georgia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey, letting the firm respond up and down the Northeast and deep into the Southeast. It works from a New Hampshire headquarters and a West Palm Beach, Florida office, serves homeowners, commercial owners, condo associations, and even large-vessel owners, and answers the phone 24/7 in English, French, and Spanish.
What sets Global Patriot apart is that it shows its math. The site publishes claim after claim with the carrier's opening number beside the final settlement, and the gaps are stark: a New Hampshire hotel water loss opened at $154,392 and settled at $815,507; a Massachusetts structural claim moved from $153,898 to $793,543. A BBB member and MAPIA member, the firm works on a straightforward No Payout, No Fee basis, so its incentive is exactly aligned with the client's.
A public adjuster is the only kind of adjuster licensed to work for you, the policyholder — not the insurance company. They document the loss, build a detailed scope and estimate, read the policy for coverage you may have missed, and negotiate the payout with the carrier, working on a percentage of what you recover.
A public adjuster is not a contractor and not an attorney: they cannot make repairs, file suit, or give legal advice. See what a public adjuster actually does and when to hire one.
South Carolina sets no statutory percentage cap; the fee is negotiated in the written contract, which must carry the disclosures required by S.C. Code Title 38, Chapter 48. Read the percentage and what it applies to before you sign.

Get the exact legal name and license (or NPN) number, then confirm an active public adjuster license in the state where your property sits. Do it on the official roster — never take the number on a business card at face value.
South Carolina Department of Insurance licensee lookup →A public adjuster is the right call when the carrier agrees the loss is covered but the check is too low. When the carrier denies coverage outright, alleges misrepresentation, sits on the claim past the statutory deadlines, or acts in bad faith, that is legal territory a public adjuster cannot enter.
If your claim was denied rather than merely underpaid, start with a free attorney review — see public adjuster vs. attorney, why claims get denied, and the deadlines that protect your rights.
