Louisiana's claims professionals, serving property owners with documented precision and ethical practice.
When your claim is underpaid, denied, or simply overwhelming to navigate, Equitas steps in as your licensed advocate. We document your loss, build the estimate, and present your claim to the carrier professionally, backed by evidence, not emotion.
Start With A Claim ReviewWhen your claim has reached an impasse, appraisal is the formal process designed to produce a binding resolution. We step in as your appointed appraiser, documenting the loss, building the case, and taking it to the table.
Discuss Your SituationEvery service we provide is grounded in accurate documentation and professional resolution.
When a loss is documented poorly, the claim can be misunderstood from the start. Our job is to document it correctly, present it clearly, and give the policyholder the strongest factual foundation possible.
"When the loss is documented correctly, the policyholder has a real chance to be heard, understood, and evaluated on the facts."
We don't inflate. We document completely. Thorough, accurate documentation is the foundation of every well-supported claim.
We engage carriers and their adjusters as fellow professionals. Respectful, evidence-based communication resolves claims faster and with less friction for everyone.
Whether acting as public adjuster or umpire, our professional conduct standards are identical because our reputation is the same in every role.
Every report we produce is built to withstand scrutiny at every level, from carrier review to appraisal panel challenge.
William Brannon was born and raised in New Orleans and has been in the insurance industry since 2017. He started on the carrier side as a daily adjuster and worked his way into reinspection and ADR work. One thing William noticed early was that desk adjusters and field inspectors would regularly miss tens of thousands of dollars in damage during the initial inspection. He saw what a difference proper documentation made, and he wanted to be on the side of the process that fought for the homeowner from the start.
Family is everything to William. He shows up, he doesn't miss events, and that same instinct carries into how he handles every file. He slows the process down, breaks it into steps, and treats every client like they're family. Outside the office, you'll find him running, biking, hunting, traveling with his wife, following the financial markets, or at home with Oliver, their cat.
These results reflect the gap between what carriers initially offer and what the claim was actually worth.
Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Each claim is unique and results depend on the specific facts, coverage, and circumstances of the individual matter. Results shown reflect actual documented appraisal awards and resolved claims on specific closed files.
Before founding Equitas, our principal spent years on the carrier side, working multiple catastrophe deployments across the Gulf Coast and closing 1,000+ files. That experience is the lens through which every claim is evaluated, and it makes our documentation sharper, our appraisals harder to challenge, and our advocacy more effective.
