My wife and I own a three family in Boston that was severely water damaged throughout (frozen pipes). Our insurance company low-balled us on a settlement. We were referred to SMWP, by a friend who had used their services. Our adjuster, Bryan, ended up getting us 4x the amount we were initially offered due to his intensive knowledge of the system. Our house is now completely renovated and fully occupied and we are beginning the process of financially rebuilding our nest egg. We can't express enough the difference Swerling Milton Winnick Public Insurance Adjusters made to our efforts.

Within 48 hours of our house fire, we met SMW on site. They had been highly recommended to us. We had met with other adjusters previously but we immediately felt SMW was going to be a great partner and resource to guide us through our loss recovery and the claims process. They were exceptional. Dayle and Tony were great to work with and we can't imagine working our way through that mess without them on our side.

There is simply no way to manage a large insurance loss without the help of Swerling Milton Winnick. From day one they provided us with professional, compassionate and critical guidance to dealing with the loss of our home from fire. They guided us every step of the way and there is simply no way our claim would have been what it was without their professional guidance and support.

Don't walk this road alone. It is 100% worth the minimal percentage you pay to have their assistance and knowledge of everything you need to be addressing during a large claim. They played a huge part in our family moving forward and being able to put this terrible experience behind us.

Nothing prepares you for a fire in your home in the middle of the night. We got out safely and sat down the following day to figure out next steps. We needed a public adjuster and a neighbor highly recommended Swerling Milton Winnick. He and his family had worked with SMW for several generations. During our first phone conversation with Dayle Swerling, we knew Swerling was the right firm to hire. Family-owned and operated, SMW brought their extensive knowledge and industry connections to bear, along with a practical and extremely well-organized approach to everything they patiently accomplished for us.

Their client-centric style and collaborative efforts made the process seamless for us. Dayle Swerling is a caring person who did meticulous work and we trusted her. Throughout the period of our claim, we reminded ourselves of how lucky we were that our neighbor had recommended Swerling. If you find yourself in need of a public adjuster, do yourself a favor and hire Swerling Milton Winnick. They are exceptional!

When a tree fell through my mother's house in February 2019 and demolished half of it, I was in despair what to do and how to deal with it Within hours of it happening, a neighbor friend of my mother's recommended Swerling, Milton and Winnick as they helped them when their house was hit by lightning. I called within 18 hours of the tree fall, and within 45 minutes of my call, Jeffrey Winnick was at the house and met with me; I hired them immediately, and that day, he had arranged for a tree company with a crane to remove this massive 500' white pine tree out of the house, had a board up company come who wrapped the house from the elements, contacted the utilities to turn everything off and started contacting the insurance company.

All within 24 hours! I was amazed and so thankful. Throughout the process, everyone at SMW was thorough, responsive, professional and was able to get twice as much payout from the insurance company from their initial estimate. I had not been aware of Public Adjusters, and am and was thankful for that neighbor's call and introduction to Jeffrey Winnick. Such a God send.

I was very impressed with the kindness that Paul Winnick provided to my family during our loss. Paul called me back on a Sunday afternoon shortly after the fire. He was knowledgeable, calm and gave us all the right advice. In particular, my brother had signed an agreement with another agent who showed up at the scene of the fire. We were able to cancel that contract which was a very bad deal. I am happy to recommend Paul and his firm to anyone else in this tough situation.

Jeff and the team at Swirling Milton Winnick were indispensable in helping me manage the complex and difficult process of filing my homeowners claim after a pipe burst and flooded my house. I felt like they were effective advocates to ensure I was reimbursed fairly for the extensive damage incurred. They kept me appraised of progress throughout the process and acted in a professional manner at all times.

Their attention to detail and extensive knowledge helped me manage through the ups and downs of the claims process with my insurance company. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend SMW and would work with them again In a heartbeat.

Jeff Winnick provides exceptional service. I won't use ANYONE else for any of my losses. We manage a few hundred properties in Boston and Jeff has helped with some big losses. His team and him are always responsive and will help you get the insurance proceeds you deserve, while providing clear communication the entire time
