Most auto appraisers you’ll find online are not licensed public adjusters. They provide vehicle appraisals only — often for insurance companies and consumers — but cannot speak on coverage, negotiate your claim, or protect your rights. This dual representation risks compromising your best interests in favor of a profitable insurance relationship.
Sometimes, you'll find an appraiser who is also an adjuster -
In an insurance claim, there are three kinds of adjusters:
- Company Adjusters – employed by the insurer to protect their bottom line.
- Independent Adjusters – hired by insurance companies independently or on contract; they still serve the insurer’s interest.
- Public Adjusters – licensed professionals who represent you, the policyholder — and are legally banned from ever representing the insurer.
Claim Complete Auto Appraisals brings both credentials together — licensed Public Adjuster and Certified Auto Appraiser — so you can be confident that your claim is handled by someone truly independent, qualified, and 100% representing your interests only.
