Yes. Contact the adjuster and find out why you did not receive the check. It is normally send to you, not the broker. The broker has no right to the funds, the settlement is between you and the insurer. If there is any problem, speak to the adjuster's supervisor and just keep going higher up the chain of command at the carrier.
