Katherine reached out to us after her daughter’s 2020 Mazda CX-5 got totaled by a hail storm. Once she got an offer from her insurance carrier Travelers, she did her research and felt the offer was very low.
She reached out to us for a free claim review and we agreed that it seemed like her vehicle should be worth around $21K when compared to the market.
Her offer was $15.9K before taxes and, after the appraisal clause process, she was awarded $20.7K for the value of her vehicle. This happens over and over again for our customers and you could be next if your claim is worth it.
Reach out today if you’re dealing with a total loss and see if you’re leaving money on the table!
Our customer was tenacious and it paid off with a diminished value judgment!
Sometimes after helping a customer, the satisfaction is quite delayed due to the timing of the process. Our customer Mark from California reached out after an auto accident in L.A. County for help appraising his diminished value on his 2022 Volvo XC90. His claim came in right around $7500 so he purchased an appraisal and made his demand.
After getting a full denial from Kemper Insurance, he wasted no time in filing a suit in the Superior Court of California – County of Los Angeles to recoup his damages. To support his appraisal, Justin testified remotely as to the diminished value damages. We got word from the owner that he won his case recently and has finally wrapped up his collection efforts. Read his update below after my check-in!
“I ended up getting everything I was owed.
Thanks to Justin, I got the full judgment in small claims court. The insurance company paid out the max for the policy of the defendant, which was only about half of the judgement. Then I had the DMV intervene to force payment from the defendant. He paid me via a payment plan that completed last month.
I’m still astonished it all went my way. I’m so grateful to you both!”

Thomas was one of those customers that really mulled over the decision to pursue his diminished value.
He got a free claim consultation and months passed before he finally called back in ready to fight for his 2013 GMC Acadia Denali diminished value and he walked away with $4,000!
Jason lives in California and he dealt with the normal slow paced adjuster and the holiday rush while trying to get his diminished value claim on his 2011 Audi S5 settled.
He hired us after the insurance company told him they needed expert proof to pay diminished value.
That is where we stepped in and did what we do best:
We did our research gave guidance and support to our client throughout his claim!
Our client, Ed, started his claim out the right way and that was by doing his research about 2013 Chrysler 200 diminished value while his car was still in repair and requested a free consultation with us right away.
He was fighting with an insurance company that was open-minded about being fair when giving him an offer and a little back and forth on his end got him a settlement of $2000!
