  • Which service is right for my claim?

    The right service depends on your situation. If your vehicle was repaired after an accident and lost market value, you may need a diminished value report. If your vehicle was declared a total loss and you disagree with the insurance company’s valuation, a total loss appraisal or appraisal clause service may be appropriate. We also provide independent valuations for specialty vehicles and unique claims. If you’re unsure which service you need, contact us and we’ll review your situation and recommend the best option.
