Who We Work With

We work with private buyers, collectors, vehicle owners, attorneys, and legal professionals who require independent automotive expertise before making an important decision.

This includes pre-purchase and forensic inspection support, insurance valuation disputes, appraisal clause matters, legal proceedings, estate and trust matters, dissolution proceedings, and private transactions where accuracy, documentation, and defensibility are critical.

What We Do

  • Pre-purchase and forensic vehicle inspections at dealer, seller, and repair shop locations
  • Total loss vehicle appraisals for insurance disputes
  • Appraisal clause and right-to-appraisal representation
  • Expert witness services for litigation and arbitration matters
  • Independent valuation reports for legal, estate, and private use
  • Market-supported valuations for specialty, collector, and modified vehicles

What Sets Us Apart

Whether you are buying a vehicle or navigating an insurance dispute, every engagement is built on the same foundation: independent analysis, thorough documentation, and defensible conclusions.

Pre-purchase and forensic vehicle inspections are performed in person at the dealer, seller, repair facility, or vehicle location. Appraisal work is supported by documented comparable sales, vehicle-specific condition analysis, and market-based adjustments—not automated tools or volume-driven shortcuts.

Reports and inspection findings are structured to withstand insurer review, appraisal proceedings, arbitration, and courtroom scrutiny, while also giving private clients the confidence to negotiate, proceed, or walk away before making a costly mistake.

Every engagement is prepared independently, without bias or financial interest in the outcome.


How the Process Works

1. Initial Contact & Review

Tell us about the vehicle and what you need. Whether it’s a pre-purchase inspection, a forensic evaluation, or a formal appraisal, we’ll confirm whether the assignment is a fit and outline next steps.

2. Scheduling & Engagement

Once scope, fees, and availability are confirmed, we schedule the inspection or appraisal. For inspections, we coordinate directly with the dealer, seller, or facility.

3. Evaluation & Delivery

We conduct the inspection or appraisal and deliver clear, documented findings — giving you the information you need to move forward with confidence.
