I’ve repaired my vehicle, but now it’s not worth as much? Will I get any compensation?

It has been estimated that 55% of consumers would not buy a car that had been in an accident. 81% would not have a car that had been in a wreck unless they were given a large discount.

Even if your vehicle is repaired, it will never escape the fact that it was involved in an accident. With today’s technology, any consumer or car dealership can search a number of websites and discover exactly what repairs were made. Needless to say, when your vehicle has been in an accident and has been repaired, it has lost value! What most insurance companies won’t tell you is that you may be entitled to recovered money for value lost. If your vehicle is being repaired from an auto accident, call me today to find out how we can help recover lost value by bringing a Diminished Value (DV) claim.

What is Diminished Value? Diminished Value or (DV) refers to the lost value of a vehicle that has been involved in an auto accident and subsequently repaired. Often times, damage to a vehicle can be so severe that it can never be sold as a “certified used vehicle”. This can reduce the sale value by as much as 40%. You should know that if your vehicle has suffered Diminished Value you may be entitled to recover money damages from the at-fault insurance company?

What is a Diminished Value Claim? A Diminished Value claim is a claim brought against an at-fault insurance company for loss of value to a repaired vehicle. Even if an insurance company has paid to fully repair your vehicle, you may be entitled to more?
