Professional history

What Clients Say About David Messeri

These reviews describe services David provided during his prior affiliation with Fraser Property & Adjusting before establishing Messeri & Associates.

We used Fraser after suffering roof damage that our insurance company (UPC) attempted to resolve with a less than professional settlement. David Messeri and the rest of the team @ Fraser were very thorough and professional in taking on our case. Mr. Ari Fraser was superb in our arbitration review, working on our behalf to earn a more reasonable settlement with UPC.

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND Fraser Property Adjusting. Their professionalism is extraordinary and their efforts to recoup additional money from insurance was strategic and profitable. Definitely worth pursuing. David Messeri and all others were a pleasure to work with.

I would highly recommend Fraser Property and Adjusting to make an insurance claim. We had a lot of damage after Sally last year and experienced dealing with an insurance claim. We called Fraser and received quick service and outstanding customer service. Jenna and David (Messeri) came out on time and were very professional and helpful! Kudos!

I highly recommend using Fraser! I had damage to my house from a hurricane and they have made the process much less stressful. Jenna and David (Messeri) always kept me posted on everything and were a pleasure to work with. They treat you like family and really look out for you to ensure your claim is handled properly and thoroughly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to what property owners ask us most often

How much does a public adjuster cost?
Public-adjuster compensation is governed by Florida law and the written engagement agreement. The permitted fee depends on the type and timing of the claim, prior payments, any applicable emergency declaration, and the services requested. We explain the applicable fee in writing before an engagement is signed.
How long does an insurance claim take?
Timing varies with the policy, scope of damage, available documentation, inspections, carrier response, and whether a dispute develops. We set expectations after reviewing the facts and keep clients informed as the claim progresses.
Can I switch from another adjuster or attorney?
Yes. You have the right to change representation on your claim. We'll review your existing contract and help coordinate the transition.
My claim was denied. Can you still help?
Possibly. We review the denial, policy, damage documentation, deadlines, and prior submissions to determine whether additional investigation or a supplemental presentation may be appropriate. Results depend on the facts and policy terms.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. We'll review your policy, inspect the damage, and tell you honestly whether you have a claim worth pursuing — at no cost and with no obligation.
What types of damage do you handle?
Hurricane and wind damage, flood, fire and smoke, water damage from plumbing failures, theft and vandalism, mold, and other covered property losses for both residential and commercial properties.
Evidence before promises

What a Well-Prepared Claim Includes

Every loss is different. Our work focuses on building a clear, traceable record instead of promising a particular outcome.

Damage Documentation

Scope tied to evidence

Photographs, measurements, moisture data, reports, and observations organized around the specific components in dispute.

Estimate Review

Transparent repair pricing

Line-item estimates reviewed for quantities, labor, materials, repair methodology, code items, and documented property conditions.

Policy & Claim Record

Issues clearly organized

Relevant policy provisions, carrier communications, inspections, estimates, and deadlines assembled into a coherent claim presentation.

Communication

Consistent client updates

A defined point of contact, documented requests, follow-up on outstanding items, and clear explanations of material developments.

No result or timeline can be guaranteed. Outcomes depend on policy language, available coverage, documentation, carrier decisions, and the facts of the loss.

Start with the right kind of review.
