Public insurance adjuster claimed a valid lien on homeowner's insurance proceeds, which lien was created by contract between adjuster and homeowner for fire loss adjusting services to be provided for 10% fee. That Chapter 770 does not specifically describe liens for public insurance adjusters does not mean that such liens cannot exist, as Chapter 770 is not meant to be comprehensive. (SPOMER and WEXSTTEN, concurring.)
