Diminished Value Las Vegas

Each week we report on the most interesting and informative articles concerning auto diminished value claims. Regarding our diminished value appraisal of a Dodge R3500 Laramie AWD Diesel Pickup Truck with 134,344 miles that was involved in a Front End Collision that caused $17,122.16 in damage. The truck was disabled/towed and had structural damage and no air bag deployment.The claimant hired an independent auto appraiser near Las Vegas and made a third-party inherent auto diminished value claim for the vehicle’s loss in value. Once a car is repaired after a collision, it is worth less, often much less depending on the severity of the damage. Regardless of how well the repairer did his job, nobody will pay as much for a previously wrecked car as they would for an identical one that was never in an accident. Presenting a diminished value claim and following it through to a satisfactory conclusion is a daunting task for the average person. Obtaining a comprehensive Diminished Value Report is key.
