Insurance and Legal Testimony
Expert Testimony for Insurance and Legal Matters
Classic, vintage, collectible, and antique vehicles often carry significant financial and historical value — and when questions of value arise in insurance claims, legal disputes, or estate settlements, a credible expert can make all the difference.
As an experienced and independent appraiser, I offer professional testimony and certified documentation to support vehicle owners, insurance providers, and legal professionals.
🛡️ Insurance Claim Support
In the unfortunate event of a theft, total loss, damage claim, or coverage dispute, an accurate and professionally prepared appraisal can protect the owner’s interests.
I provide:
Certified valuation reports that meet insurer standards
Detailed photographic documentation of the vehicle’s condition at time of appraisal
Market-based comparable analysis to establish fair value
Expert explanation of how value is determined and why
When required, I can work directly with insurance adjusters or legal representatives to provide clear, factual support for claim resolution.
⚖️ Legal Testimony & Valuation Opinions
Classic vehicles frequently appear in legal contexts — from estate divisions and divorces to asset settlements, disputes, or fraud investigations.
I can provide:
Independent expert opinion reports for use in legal proceedings
Valuation of individual vehicles or entire collections
Documentation suitable for court or mediation settings
In-person or virtual testimony to explain and defend the methodology behind the appraisal
Because I am not tied to any dealership, auction house, or insurer, my testimony remains objective, evidence-based, and defensible.
📜 Why This Matters
A professional appraisal provides legal and financial clarity.
It protects owners and heirs from underpayment, disputes, or undervaluation.
It helps insurance companies and legal teams resolve matters faster with confidence.
It ensures that the true market value of a classic, vintage, or collectible automobile is recognized and respected.
A Trusted, Professional Voice in the Collector Car World
With years of specialized experience in classic and vintage vehicle valuation, I understand both the passion behind the cars and the precision required in legal and insurance matters.
Whether you’re an owner, executor, lawyer, or insurance representative, I can provide clear, credible, and defensible expert support to protect the value of the vehicle in question.
