The Honest Truth of North Carolina's Diminished Value Claim Process

​

"When the claimant's and the insurer's estimate of the diminution in fair market value cannot be agreed on, then on the written demand of either the claimant or the insurer, each shall select a competent and disinterested appraiser."  GS 20-279.21(d1)​

​

When Danny hears the name of the at-fault auto insurer, he often knows who the opposing appraiser will be. Following this, the negotiation process begins to settle the claim for the maximum amount possible without involving an umpire.

 

This is crucial information that out-of-state internet appraisers and attorneys advertising diminished value claims often do not disclose!

 

This is where it pays to contact Collision Service Investigators - NC (CSI-NC). Danny can provide his insights on whether your claim is worth pursuing and explain how to properly file your diminished value claim with the at-fault auto insurer.​​
