  • My new Maserati was stolen and Amica Insurance Company only offered me $62,000. I called Appraisal Group of America Inc. and spoke with the owner, Terry Fisher. I was so impressed with Mr. Fisher I signed up on the spot. Within 1 month Appraisal Group of America Inc. had negotiated a new settlement of over $30,000 more then my original offer. I will refer all of my NFL and NBA friends to Appraisal Group of America Inc.

  • Monica,
    I just wanted to thank you for your help with our Tahoe. We settled with the insurance company last week and got a very good price ($12,546.39). I hope I don't need another car appraisal any time soon, but will know where to go if I do! Thanks again!

    Thank you very much for all your hard work and getting me this check of $2525. I collected it from travelers today as I am going on vacation today for couple of weeks.
    I would like to send gift to you for such a wonderful work you have done for me. When they send $380 check, I was quite shocked; I said to myself, that's it for my damage, but you helped me out and did wonderful job for me.

    Thanks,

  • ...I can not praise or recommend Terry and Autoloss.com enough. They did excellent work for me and I can now see why it is not a good idea to assume that your insurance company will treat you fairly...

  • Subject: Diminished Value outcome
    Dear Terry and Monica,
    Thank you very much for your assistance with my diminished value claim on my 2006 Harley Davidson FLSTN. Stare Farm Insurance Company paid the full ammount of $7,431 with very little hesitation due greatly to the accuracy of your report and the integretity of your business. I hope that I never have a need for this service again but if the occasion should arise I will not hesitate to ask for your help!
    May God Richly Bless You and Your Family,
    Kenny Wheeler

  • Dear Mr. Fisher:
    ...I appreciate your efforts on this file and for the excellent report you authored. Your report was invaluable in getting us to the point of settlement with State Farm...

  • Re: 1999 Mercedes Benz
    Thank you for your help in getting the extra money on the ML320... You have been great on the case. Please insert my testimony in your website.
    I would highly recommend you and Appraisal Group of America to friends and co-workers when it comes to settling with the auto insurance company. You have been a great help on getting that extra $1,600 on my vehicle. Thank you for going out all the way from A to Z on my case.
    Sincerely,
    Tom Vu - Houston, TX

  • Terry, Thank you for all of your help. I was very satisfied with your service!
    I found Appraisal Group of America through an online search. I was to the point that arguing with my insurance company was not getting me any farther, so I had to find a new angle. I contacted Appraisal Group of America because the website claimed that they averaged around $2,000 more than insurance companies originally offered. It was a long month (the insurance company kept delaying), but Terry Fisher succeeded in raising the payout over $3,000 more than the original offer from my insurance company. The wait and the small fee for the service were definitely worth the outcome.
    Megan Broswell - Springfield, Missouri

  • Subject: FINAL Outcome: RE: DV settlement: (BMW 330i)
    Monica- I wanted to inform you that I reached a settlement with Travelers Insurance this past week and agreed to settle the DV claim in the amount of $6,000.00.

    I eventually contacted Travelers corporate office to register a formal consumer complaint, since the folks I was working with locally here in Atlanta were refusing to budge beyond the DV amount (approx $4400) that had been determined by the independent appraisal company that they contracted with to evaluate our vehicle.

    My escalation seemed to get some attention, and I was quickly contacted by the unit manager for the state of GA who seemed to be more willing to negotiate with me. Considering the additional time and energy that I would have had to spend in the future to pursue this legally, I ultimately got them to "sharpen their pencil" a bit more in order to arrive at the bottom line amount I was willing to accept.

    In closing, I appreciate all of the advice and counsel you provided throughout this process. In the future, I will not hesitate to recommend AGA to my friends/family should they face a similar situation.
    Tim - Atlanta, Georgia

  • Subject: 1985 Mercedes Wagon
    You did a terrific job bringing my claim to State Farm to recover fair value after my 1985 Mercedes Wagon was sideswiped.  The car has been in the family since it was new so it meant a lot to us in having you advocating on our side.  Because the car is not that common it was difficult to come up with good comparable sales.  Your expertise was especially valuable in addressing this.  Thanks again for your thorough and thoughtful work.
    Tad Jude - Minneapolis, Minnesota

  • Several weeks ago, I crashed my Nissan 350 Z Roadster. My insurance company offered me $25,500 + tax. I did not feel this was a fair price. I felt the car was worth about $30,000 after looking at similar cars and values. After debating this with my insurance company, they told me I could hire an appraiser, they would hire an appraiser, and if the appraisers could not agree, both would hire an umpire. They told me this would take 4-8 weeks.

    I contacted Autoloss.com. My case was handled by Monica Fisher. Within two weeks, my insurance company has decided to pay $30,500 + tax.

    This process was very easy. Contact can be made by phone or email and Ms. Fisher was responsive at all times. Ms. Fisher handled everything and negotiated this amount with my insurance company's appraiser. No umpire was needed. Ms. Fisher told me the amount offered, that she felt it was fair, and I agreed. My insurance company is now sending me a check.

    I recommend that others who need an honest appraisal on their vehicle or whom are disputing a value with their insurance company contact Autoloss.com. There service is A+ and their prices are very competitive within the industry.

  • I would like to thank Appraisal Group of America for their help. I was so frustrated after talking to Allstate regarding diminished value. I called Appraisal Group of America and felt immediately better. The appraiser I spoke with knew the adjuster at Allstate and I could finally feel relief. Appraisal Group of America wrote the appraisal, inspected my 2001 BMW, faxed the report to Allstate, and helped me with the negotiations. I went from an offer of $0 diminished value to $8,090, and within 21 days.
    Denise Morrow - Houston, Texas

  • Hi Guys, I just wanted to drop you a quick note. Once Traveler’s received your appraisal I received a check for $5,000 for diminished value on my 2004 Honda Accord. Thanks for your help. This was my first time turning in a diminished value claim and I did not understand how it worked. Appraisal Group of America was patient with me. I will be forever grateful.
    Joy Waddel - Honolulu, Hawaii

  • I finally resolved my diminished value claim with State Farm. After fighting with State Farm for 6 months regarding them paying my diminished value claim I hired Appraisal Group of America and within 2 weeks I had a check for $4,300. The customer service is top notch and I will definitely tell people about them if any of my friends or co-workers are in the same situation.
    Jeff Hall Bellingham - Washington

  • I wanted to drop you a note regarding how happy I was with Appraisal Group of America’s service. After my 2003 Volkswagen was in a wreck then fixed I tried to trade in my vehicle at the local Volkswagen dealership. The Volkswagen Dealership stated with the 5 hours of frame damage from the wreck they were not able to put my 2003 vehicle on their car lot. They told me I needed to hire an attorney and fight Nationwide to get diminished value from the wreck. I almost dropped the case. Dealing with attorneys is not my favorite thing. I called a few attorneys and they all wanted to sue Nationwide Insurance Company. They also stated not to expect a payment for at least a year. I happen to look up diminished value on the internet and found Appraisal Group of America. I spoke with Monica and she stated with Appraisal Group of America’s help their clients typically get paid within 30-45 days for diminished value. I was hesitant but for the nominal fee I felt like I had nothing to lose. I knew I did not want to sue Nationwide. Within 41 days I had a check for $6,100 for diminished value. Thank you for your help and advice. Appraisal Group of America made a very painful situation somewhat painless.
    Michelle Levine Medford - Oregon

  • I want to thank Appraisal Group of America. I was in a major wreck and my 1999 Mercedes Benz was totaled. I had bought the Mercedes new and the vehicle only had 42,000 miles. It was my baby. Farmers ran a CCC report and offered me $10,000. I was so mad. I called Appraisal Group of America and signed up immediately. One week later Appraisal Group of America notified me that they had a new offer for me for $18,000. I was so happy. I was able to buy another Mercedes and I finally felt whole.
    Thanks,
    Cory Caloraso - Pensacola, Florida

  • I wanted to thank you for your hard work and patience settling my total loss claim on my 2004 Ford Expedition . Because of Appraisal Group of America I was able to get $3,090 more then the insurance company was offering me initially. Because I hired Appraisal Group of America I was able to pay off my loan and still have money for a down payment.
    Debra Pull - Austin, Texas

  • My wife and I fell victim to a major car crash that almost took our life. Thankfully, the accident did not kill us but our car was demolished and the insurance company wanted to fix it. Appraisal Group of America advocated for me and due to a diminished value appraisal State Farm totaled my 1999 Mercedes Benz and I was able to go buy another vehicle just like it. I highly recommend Appraisal Group of America.
    Mrs. Peterson - Lake Oswego, Oregon

  • Appraisal Group of America inspected my car, wrote a comprehensive diminished value appraisal, and negotiated my claim. They got me a check for $4,200.  I called other diminished value companies and all they stated my car was diminished $1,701. I sure am glad not all the diminished value appraisers are working for the insurance company.  I truly believe there is no other diminished value company looking out for the little guy.
    Thanks,  
    Brent Taylor - Alpharetta, Georgia

  • Thanks for all the help.  When I called Appraisal Group of America Farmers was using a CCC report and stated my Volkswagen had a branded title and worth 60% less then what I thought it was.  Appraisal Group of America fought for me and in two weeks they had the branded title removed and I got 100% of what my car was worth. Appraisal Group of America got me an additional $6,000 for my 00 Volkswagen.  I will tell everyone about your help. 
    Thanks,

  • Thank you so much for resolving my total loss claim against Allstate.  The whole process was easy, prompt, and painless.  After Allstate offered me such a little amount for my Honda Odyssey I was exhausted and we called Appraisal Group of America.  I am so glad we turned the claim over to you.  Appraisal Group of America got me what was fair for my Honda and within 1 week. In the future I will highly recommend your services to anybody that needs help once their vehicle has been totaled. 
    Gordon Smith - Florence, Kentucky

  • I am writing you today to express my deep appreciation for your help with my total loss claim on my 2002 Cadillac Escalade with State Farm.  I was extremely frustrated from dealing with State Farm for two months and had gotten nowhere. State Farm continued to refuse to give me the fair market value for my vehicle. I turned the claim over to Appraisal Group of America and within 1 month I received more money from State Farm then I was asking for initially. What a miracle.
    Thanks, and may God Bless you.
    Tim Occasion - Fort Worth, Texas

  • Dear Appraisal Group of America, I just wanted to let you know that I resolved my diminished value claim for $15,000. I had hired another diminished value company and I was only able to get $3,000 and I was so frustrated. Finally, I called Appraisal Group of America and talked to your licensed professionals and I signed up with you.  After, purchasing the diminished value appraisal and some follow up with your employees, Farmers wrote me a check for $15,000 for diminished value for my 03 Mercedes Benz. I could not have done it without you.
    John Basset - Houston, Texas
