New Jersey requires every public adjuster to file a fixed $10,000 bond with the Department of Banking and Insurance — ours is $300 flat, which is 3% of the bond amount. The application is five minutes, and license bonds like this are the fastest thing we issue.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Department of Banking and Insurance license application or renewal. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
A public adjuster bond is a policyholder-protection guarantee. You negotiate insurance claims on behalf of people who've just had the worst week of their year — New Jersey wants a financial backstop that you'll handle their claims and their money honestly.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of New Jersey (the obligee), with your clients as the protected parties. If an adjuster commits fraud, mishandles client funds, or otherwise violates the public adjuster law, the harmed insured can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and you can be referred for action against the license — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
