“When my car was totaled in Jacksonville, the insurance company’s first offer barely reflected the true market value for similar vehicles in Duval County. I ordered a SnapClaim total loss appraisal, and their report laid out detailed local comparisons that clearly showed my car was undervalued. The payout was increased substantially, allowing me to replace my car without any financial stress.”
