F.A.P.I.A. stands for the Florida Association of Public Insurance Adjusters.
FAPIA was founded in 1993 and consists of nearly 500 members and associate members who join together to protect the interests of insured homeowners and businesses who have suffered an insurance loss. Where company and independent adjusters represent the insurance companies, Public Adjusters represent the Insured.

To be considered for membership, persons must be licensed by the Florida Department of Financial Services and adhere to the FAPIA Code of Ethics. To be considered for associate membership, a person must be employed by a company or firm engaged in the business which serves the best interests of Insured Floridians and not that of insurance companies.

FAPIA headquarters are in Maitland, Florida, and the association promotes professional public adjuster education and employs Lobbyists in Tallahassee to protect the interests of the industry and the Insured.
