Mr. Dennis Frieß did his job exactly as expected. He should just reconsider his cooperation with the law firm (apparently a pro). It may drag the result down at times.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had contact with Mr. Zinnschlag from the Frieß company regarding a liability claim on our vehicle (Audi A5) and I'm thoroughly delighted. From the very beginning the conversation was extremely friendly, respectful and above all professional at the highest level! Mr. Zinnschlag took the time to fully understand my situation and explained everything to me clearly and transparently. His competent and calm manner helped me a lot in a rather stressful situation. You immediately notice that experience, professionalism and genuine commitment to the customer come together here. That's the kind of service you wish for. Clear, reliable and personable at the same time. Here the customer definitely comes first. Thank you again for the outstanding support! Absolutely recommended from my side. Best regards

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The key answers in brief. More in each service area.
What does a car appraisal cost?
In a no-fault accident, the other party's liability insurer covers the assessment costs in full, so there are no costs for you. For comprehensive-insurance damage, valuation reports or classic car appraisals, we quote a fixed price before accepting the job.
How quickly will I get my report?
As a rule, the finished report is ready 48 hours after the inspection. We handle urgent cases as a priority and can often deliver within 24 hours here. This only applies if no residual value assessment is needed (so not for total losses). Just get in touch.
Am I free to choose the appraiser?
Yes. After a no-fault accident, you have the right to an independent expert of your choice. The other party's insurer cannot dictate which appraiser you use.
Where do you inspect the vehicle?
We're mobile, we come to your vehicle in Karlsruhe and the whole region. Alternatively, we inspect it at our office in Karlsruhe-Durlach.
Are your reports recognized by insurers?
Yes. Our reports are prepared to Audatex, SilverDAT, Schwacke and Classic Analytics standards and are recognized by all major insurers and courts.
