Real results. Real people.
“I had no idea I was entitled to diminished value until I found Collision Claims Advisors. They walked me through the entire process and helped me recover over $5,000 I would've left on the table. Highly recommend!”

“My insurance company lowballed my total loss by almost $7,800. Collision Claims Advisors put together a certified appraisal that forced them to come up to fair market value. Worth every penny.”

Why Qualifications Matter
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.
