Don’t let your insurance company pay you less than you are rightfully owed.
Getting into a car accident can be a stressful time
After a car accident, the last thing you need is the added stress of dealing with a diminished value or appraisal claim. At Collision Safety Consultants, we’re here to help you recover the full value you’re entitled to.
Our Certified Experts have decades of experience navigating the complicated process of resolving an insurance claim. They can help you get the full amount that you are owed, quickly.
It’s bad enough having the accident, but what makes matters worse is the maze of insurance claims and processes to get the reimbursement that you are owed for the damage.
Claims can drag on, leaving you wondering if you are ever going to get paid. Some insurances companies will try to get you to take an early settlement that could be much less that what you are owed according to your insurance policy. Don’t let that happen to you.
Collision Safety Consultants can help you maximize your claim.
Tyler Harden2025-06-12WOW! Pete at Collision Safety Consultants was fantastic. Super thorough and responsive. Really helped answer my questions along the way. After banging my head against the wall for a month and a half dealing with the insurance company and getting nowhere near a fair value for our vehicle, Pete went to work and got not only what we needed, but even a little bit more! Best money ever spent.
Colton Clifton2025-06-11Tim at CSC was fantastic. From day one, he walked me through every step of the way and was always available for questions. I was able to get what I deserved from the insurance company. Highly recommended.
A H2025-05-10I had an outstanding experience working with Pete Peturssun from Collision Safety Consultants. After my 2021 BMW M440i was involved in an accident, I received a lowball offer for my diminished value claim. That’s when I reached out to Pete—and I’m so glad I did. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, he was able to secure **more than double** my initial settlement. He was professional, knowledgeable, and always kept me informed throughout the process. I highly recommend Pete and Collision Safety Consultants to anyone dealing with a diminished value claim. You won’t be disappointed!
helina9812025-05-06I had an excellent experience! After my new car was in an accident, Tim handled everything seamlessly. I received my insurance check within a week. He’s incredibly experienced and knowledgeable—highly recommend!
Jorge Gonzalez2025-05-01Tim was great to work with. My car was declared a total loss by my insurance company and I received a fair settlement amount thanks to Tim’s advice. He is knowledgable, honest, reliable and cares. He provided excellent services, great advice and easy to understand support throughout the entire process. Very refreshing to work with someone you can trust and rely on during events such as this one. I highly recommend Collision Safety Consultants DMV. Thanks Tim.
Owen Godbold2025-04-28"You won't get any more money for your claim", "This is a reasonable compensation", "Similar comps have already been listed and reviewed and we aren't giving you any money". These are a couple of the things my adjuster told me when I pointed out the value they had placed my car was HALF of what I had paid for it 6 months prior. Yes, I understand that it is an ACV policy but that still doesn't make any sense that it is that low. Low and behold, Tim Pfeifle brings them up thousands of dollars above what they said they were going to pay me. This guy is the real deal, and I will hopefully never have to use him again, but I know that if I do results will happen. Professional, competent, and with no-high pressure sales tactics Tim got the job done ahead of schedule and above where my expectations were set. Highly highly highly recommend this team and company, don't take the word of your insurance carrier who is incentivized to pay you less at face value. Do it right, get Tim, end of story.
Steve Sage2025-04-22We could have never done this without help from Tim at CSC. When our three week old vehicle was hit with over $20K worth of damage, fortunately someone recommended that we call CSC. They not only helped us develop everything we needed for a devaluation claim (we didn't even know there was such a thing) but Tim looked through the body shop estimate and noticed them looking for several junkyard parts. To be put on a 3 week old car! We called out the body shop and they backed off. There are so many ways insurance companies and their body shop try to cut corners and don't tell you. When you mention you have someone with the experience of Tim on your side, they behave completely differently. For the devaluation claim the insurance company offered us less than half what we were asking. We rejected their offer and showed up for our first court date. Which was really just to meet the insurance company lawyer and schedule an actual trial date. We met, talked to the lawyer and presented him with everything that CSC had prepared. They could tell we were informed and not willing to be taken advantage of. We knew we'd have to find a middle ground to settle so there was some haggling. We had a number that we'd be willing to accept. Their lawyer was fair, we still had to counter offer twice but, in the end, we got more than what we thought we would. The money we paid CSC was the best we ever spent. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Vanishia Jackson Kelly2025-04-21Shout out to Pete and the team at safety collision consultants here in the dmv! After I was involved in a car accident in December I was fighting my own case and learned about DV! Hit the team up in January to receive information, he told me to wait until I had my car back and everything was working properly. After several returns to the body shop, my car was back and I called Pete ready to go after Statefarm! I made my payment & the rest was history. He determined I lost 6k in DV after several conversations we was able to get me 4k back, a win is a win! Thanks team.
Linda Rohleder2025-04-04I never knew this service existed. Tim did an excellent job communicating on my behalf and he was able to negotiate a favorable settlement with the insurance company. Highly recommend!
Taylor Green2025-03-26Can’t thank Pete enough for all the work he put into getting us a GREAT settlement. Dealing with insurance after an already emotional experience is draining. Having to turn around and fight for even a fair appraisal is exhausting. Leave it to the professionals get the job done. Can’t recommend enough!!
