Our fees are very reasonable
We have a very high success rate and typically we get more money back to our customers than the cost of our service.
What to expect:
Contact Us with your info. We provide a free initial consultation to determine if we can help you. Fill out the form with your claim information. Make sure your information is as accurate and complete as possible.
We review your claim at no charge to you. We’ll evaluate your situation and recommend the best approach with what you can expect to receive from your insurance company.
We collect the service fee and go to work with your insurance company for you. We’ll provide updates and information as to how the settlement negotiations are proceeding and if we need more information from you.
Some services involving outside parties may incur additional costs. For example, if your car needs to be towed to a service station in order to conduct an inspection, you will need to pay the towing company directly for their service.

Mark Minor2024-08-26It's great to have an advocate like Tim and the team on your side when dealing with a difficult insurance company and claim. Things greatly accelerated when Tim and the team became involved. Don't wait for a difficult insurance company to do the right thing, reach out to Tim to see if they can assist.
Zach Zee2024-08-13CSC is soooooo worth it! Back in February 2024 our mint, clean and VERY nice 2022 CRV AWD was hit by another driver. Repairs were made but I knew the value of our car would suffer greatly upon trade in, which is has. Because of this, I started doing some research and came across CSC, I emailed them around April or May and Tim P. from the DMV location got back to me and told me what I needed to do. I sent over all the required documentation to him, paid the fee and he took care of the rest and fought this for me long and hard! The first offer was $2200, then the insurance company was playing hardball and said $1600!!!!!! How do you go DOWN??? Tim fought this for me and got us $4600!! A number I think is both fair and realistic. I would definitely use them again god forbid I am in this situation again. Id leave Tim a 10/5 stars if I could! CSC is legit and am so thankful this is all behind me now! Thanks again! -Zach
Vance Morris2024-07-18Was referred by my body shop to you guys. They got me $6000 more than the insurance company was offering. Do NOT trust your insurance company, let Tim and his team get you the most money possible.
sean balile2024-06-20Working with Tim Pfeifle was an excellent experience. He was very responsive and did a great job guiding me throughout the entire process. Tim was very hands-on in dealing with the insurance company of the car that hit mine, and he helped me get over $12,000 back! I highly recommend his services!
Joe Russo2024-06-05Tim at Collision Safety Consultants was great to deal with, he gave me confidence in my dealings with the insurance company after my truck was totaled. Unfortunately I had made some decisions before working with him that meant he wasn't able to help me in the end. After coming to that conclusion, he offered a full refund of my money. These guys are honest and legit. Hopefully there won't be a next time, but if there is, I'll make smarter decisions and engage with them earlier.
Hamza Bhatti2024-06-04My vehicle was stolen and eventually recovered. Eventually the vehicle was considered a total loss I was recommended to speak with Tim by a friend of mine. Tim has been extremely professional, very quick with responses and got me a much higher settlement then the insurance company had originally agreed to. Tim and CSC are the real deal and I will be recommending them going forward to any friends and family that go through a similar situation as me. 10/10 excellent customer service and Tim is extremely good at what he does. Thanks again!
Justin Greene2024-06-03Helped me get the full amount due in a time of need
Richard Mungo2024-05-13Great experience working with Tim! Saved me more money than i even thought possible! I highly recommend making this phone call for a appraisal if you have been offered anything from your insurance company, im glad i did.
Jeffrey Glow2024-04-27Collision Safety Consultants is absolutely hands down the best at what they do. They prepared a diminished value evaluation for me. Farmers Insurance offered $1200 DV for my 2019 Lexus 450H with less than 25k miles. Tim and CSC went to work and got me 4K. $2800 more than Farmers original offer. Thanks Tim and CSC for being the voice for the people against the insurance industry!
zineb boudiar2024-04-25Tim was great to work with from start to finish. The process is smooth and quick, and I highly recommend him if you need to claim a diminished value for your car.
