Iowa City claim FAQs
The insurer's comps are from other cities. Is that allowed?
It's common — and it's exactly where value disappears. Comparables should reflect the market where you'd actually replace the vehicle. We rebuild the valuation using Iowa City-market data.
Do you inspect vehicles in person?
Most engagements are desk appraisals from records, photos, and market data — which is why we can serve Iowa City quickly from anywhere. The work product is the same signed, court-ready report.
What does it cost to find out if I have a case?
Nothing. The 60-second Claim Checkup plus a free 15-minute consultation tells you whether your claim is worth pursuing before you spend a dollar.
