Settling a claim is full of technical terms with real money behind them. In these articles we explain the most important of them so that you can judge your own entitlements – no small print and nothing being sold.
Every article comes out of the practice's daily work – out of cases in which exactly these questions were argued over.
Who bears the appraiser's fee after a collision – and the cases in which there are exceptions.
How to tell whether your case needs a full report or whether a repair estimate is enough.
Replacement value, residual value and the 130 per cent threshold – what applies in an economic total loss.
What is handled differently after a collision in a commercially used vehicle than in a private one.
What to do immediately after a collision that was not your fault – and what to avoid.
Why a repaired vehicle is worth less – and how that loss is calculated.
Payment on the basis of the report, or a repair with an invoice – the differences at a glance.
For every day without your vehicle you are owed money – even without hiring a car. Many people do not know that.
A residual value set too high costs you real money – and that is exactly where insurers apply pressure.
On an electric vehicle the most expensive component sits under the floor – and the damage is often invisible.
The return is the moment at which ordinary signs of use suddenly turn into four-figure demands.
Damage inspections, measurement protocols and vehicles on the lift – glimpses of the practice's daily work. The posts are in German.
