Every case is different. Results depend on the vehicle, the damage, and the insurer. These are real, documented outcomes.
In a world of automation, appraisal reports are becoming easier than ever to generate. But a report generated by software is not the same as an appraisal developed and supported by a qualified appraiser.
At Collision Claims Advisors, real appraisers stand behind our work. Our appraisers maintain appropriate training and credentials, and our appraisal process follows applicable USPAP Standards 7 and 8 for personal property appraisal.
We remain independent, research the market, analyze the evidence, and take professional responsibility for our conclusions.
And if your claim ends up in a courtroom, there’s a real appraiser behind the report — prepared to stand behind it.
Your repair facility repairs the vehicle. Your insurer evaluates the claim. We independently appraise the loss.
Our proprietary appraisal platform generates USPAP-compliant reports faster and more accurately than any manual process.
