Re: DV claim in TN
A lot of insurance companies practices are essentially legalized theft. Other times the adjuster will simply not know what they are talking about due to poor and inconsistent training. Either way the result is the same: unfair denials of valid claims. You're doing exactly the right thing by pursuin...

Re: New York - 2020 Tesla Model Y - No Damage - Inherent Diminished Value claim Denied
Hi again Simon, It's been a while! But I finally have an outcome with Carfax and Autocheck. Both accidents still appear on the report however, autocheck shows no damage was reported in the collision. Carfax added that damage was under $1,000. Wondering if it's still worth pursuing the insurance cla...

Re: ALFA Adjuster Issues
I'm the man you spoke to :) Yes, you only want what's yours and then they mistreat you - it's wrong. And that's why there are laws in place to award people additional damages if the insurance company is not treating them right. Refer to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurance_bad_faith 1. The adjus...

Regardless, to properly prove your diminished value claim you should obtain a Diminished Value Appraisal from an independent auto appraiser. W...

Can I use a diminished value calculator to back up my claim?
You could but it's a bad idea. The used vehicle market is too dynamic, complex and localized for any cookie cutter arbitrary formula to be accurate in appraising diminished value. Using any arbitrary formula or a calculator is not a valid appraisal methodology. Calculator-derived diminished value am...

Hi Simon, Just letting you know that I followed up with both, unfortunately the only platform to follow up is the same web customer enquiry form. If I don't hear back by mid January I will get an appraisal and reach out to you for advice. Sounds good. Side note - does Tiger DV handle appraising and...
