What Is the Purpose of the Montana Public Adjuster Bond? 

Once licensed by the Montana Commissioner of Securities and Insurance, the public adjuster is responsible for working on behalf of insured individuals, fulfilling customer contracts, and following all license regulations pursuant to Title 33, Chapter 17 of the Montana Code Annotated. If the above requirements are not upheld by the public adjuster and wrongful damages are caused, funds from the Public Adjuster Bond may be used to compensate the harmed party for any financial losses incurred.
