Before accepting a total loss offer, check the details.
Austin Nix can review the information behind the offer and help identify whether a paid valuation review is worth considering.
One intake page. A more useful review.
All new requests now begin through our full estimate page. Tell us that your vehicle is a total loss and provide the insurer’s valuation report and current offer. There is no separate short form on this page.
What to include
- Complete insurer valuation and settlement breakdown.
- Year, make, model, trim, VIN and mileage.
- Pre-loss photos and condition details.
- Options, modifications and relevant receipts.
- Appraisal clause, if applicable, and any deadlines.
What the review can do
Help identify missing equipment, questionable comparisons or information needed for a paid appraisal. It does not guarantee a higher settlement or provide legal advice.
Physical inspections and additional work are paid services. Scope and fees are agreed in advance.
Understand the dispute route first
For a claim under your own policy, an appraisal provision may offer a way to resolve a valuation disagreement. A third-party claim is different. Read our Oregon total loss guide and the Oregon DFR guidance before assuming that the same process applies to both.

The free estimate is a preliminary document review. Physical inspections, repair inspections and paid appraisal services require a separate agreement and additional fees.
