My friend crashed her car in a recent storm. She immediately filed a claim, however it took an adjuster 10 days to come look at her car! By this time the car had rusted in the damage area. They deemed it a total loss. Today she is dealing with an investigation. They are trying to hassle her about the damage saying because its rusty it appears to be pre-existing damage, when in fact it’s not. What should she do and why is her own insurer treating her so poorly like she’s a criminal? (more…)
Today I was reading an email from Soul Pancake and if you aren’t subscribing to their emails, you’re missing out on some beautiful work! Soul Pancake was created by Rainn Wilson and a creative team he works with – their website is a beautiful compilation of awesomeness that is smart, inspirational and witty and warms the heart strings! They are famous for creating Kid President and other gems like the short videos featured on OWN that show what it is to be human and it makes you remember to find beauty in our every day world and reconnect to each other.
One of my FAVORITE videos Soul Pancake has made is “Take A Seat” featuring strangers sitting in a ball pit asking questions to get to know each other. It is a great reminder that we’re not so different from all the folks we pass on the street every day.

As the marketing director, I do a lot of search term and keyword research to make sure auto accident victims find us when they do their research online and recently I saw a couple of searches asking “is diminished value a scam” and even searching “petty details scam”. For a moment, I was almost mad at the computer seeing our name paired with the word “scam” because of how passionate we are about our work but then I realized – they’re just like me! I know I would be searching that same thing if we were thinking of hiring expert help in a very niche-y subject such as diminished value from someone online. (more…)
We know you’ve heard the saying “The eyes are the window to the soul” and this artist used colored pencils to help us visualize just that.
We follow a blog called Colossal because they focus on the details that make things really beautiful in our life and today’s post focused on Texas-based graffiti artist Redosking, who draws super-realistic images of eyes. The petty details are really what makes his art so beautiful – the pores of the skin, the eyelashes, the pictures within the eye. Check out Colossal’s blog post here with more drawings! See even more of his gorgeous work on his Instagram page – it’s worth a follow for sure! (more…)
Leo knew he had at least a small Fiat diminished value claim after minor damage to his new car. He found us to give him the evidence to fight without coming out of pocket hundreds of dollars!
Leo’s damages were under $2,000 so he didn’t want to invest a lot in his Fiat diminished value claim but the insurance company was willing to address the DV if he had an expert report. After looking at his claim, we valued it at about $1450 and helped him get a demand in front of the insurance company.
