Diminished Value

After an accident a fully repaired car has lost value because:

  • Consumers place less value on a previously damaged car
  • Repair shops are often unable to duplicate processes available only to manufacturers
  • All damage, even minor, will show up on a car fax or vehicle history report

Thankfully, we found Forrest Law’s web site, which contains valuable information about diminished value.  Had we not found the web site, I’m not sure we would have ever known about “DV.”
