(a) No public adjuster shall charge a fee in excess of 12.5 percent of the recovery for services rendered by the adjuster, with respect to a claim, except a public adjuster may charge a fee of up to 20 percent on a supplemental claim if the aggregate fee charged is less than or equal to 12.5 percent of the full claim payment.

(c) Notwithstanding subdivisions (a) and (b) of this section or section 25.6(e)(4) of this Part, a public adjuster shall not receive any compensation, either directly or indirectly, for a referral described in section 25.6(e)(2) of this Part.
