ABOUT TOTAL LOSS NORTHWEST
One Independent Northwest Auto Appraiser. In Your Corner.
When you contact Total Loss Northwest, you deal directly with me. I'm the appraiser reviewing your insurance company's valuation, researching your vehicle, and handling your appraisal—not a call center, an automated estimate, or a rotating group of representatives.
I work exclusively for policyholders on first-party total loss disputes. I don't accept insurance-company appraisal assignments.

PERSONAL SERVICE, EVIDENCE-BASED APPRAISALS
You'll know exactly who's handling your claim.
Getting a total loss offer can leave you wondering whether the insurance company accounted for the correct trim, equipment, mileage, condition, and comparable vehicles. I take the time to examine those details and explain what the evidence supports.
My job isn't to generate an instant number or promise a particular outcome. It's to prepare a defensible independent appraisal and advocate for a fair valuation through the process available under your policy.
Real Northwest market knowledge
I review vehicle-specific evidence and comparable vehicles relevant to your claim.
Direct access
From your first review through the appraisal process, you're dealing with me.
How I approach a total loss dispute
I start with the insurer's valuation report. I look for inaccurate vehicle details, missing options, inappropriate comparable vehicles, unsupported adjustments, and other issues that may affect actual cash value. When the evidence supports a dispute and the policy provides an appraisal process, I explain the next steps.
Washington is my primary market. I also handle qualifying first-party total loss matters in Oregon and Idaho.
