From the owner: ihr-gutachten.com GmbH is an independent automotive expert appraisal firm…read more(Kfz-Sachverständigenbüro) based in Berlin, Germany. Founded in 2013, we work Berlin-wide and specialize exclusively in vehicle damage assessments for third-party liability claims - that is, accidents between two motorized road users in which our client is not at fault.
If you are involved in a car accident that was not your fault, you have the right to choose your own independent appraiser, and the at-fault driver's insurer generally covers the cost of the report. Our team includes TÜV Rheinland-certified assessors Michael Kroitzsch (Certipedia ID 0000045004, certified since 2014) and Karsten Look (Certipedia ID 0217465566), who document all relevant damage to your vehicle - repair costs, diminished market value (Wertminderung), and loss of use - so that your claim rests on a neutral, professional assessment.
Fast on-site service is central to what we do: one of our appraisers reaches you at the accident or repair location within 60 minutes to record the damage. We serve Berlin and the surrounding region, and our reports are prepared to meet the standards required by insurers, lawyers, and courts. In most cases, we bill our fee directly to the at-fault driver's insurer - so there are usually no upfront costs for you.
