An appraiser is an officially certified expert who examines and assesses the damage caused to a car in an accident.
Entitlement to your own expert
The injured party is not obliged to accept the expert provided by the opposing insurance company. You can consult and commission an independent expert of your own choice. This regularly has advantages for your claims settlement, as the experts selected by the insurance company are not independent and act in the interests of the insurance company. The costs incurred for the expert opinion must be borne by the opposing insurance company.
A separate expert is advisable if the amount of damage is high
Insurance companies like to use their own experts. They draw up expert reports that may determine an amount of damage that is too low so that the insurance company incurs fewer costs. As the injured party, you should realise that having your own expert is the better solution. Especially if the amount of damage is particularly high, as the insurance company wants to keep its expenses low.
