Public Entity & Risk Pool Appraisals

Public agencies get audited, and so do the TPAs that administer their claims. That changes what a good appraisal looks like: not just an accurate number, but a file that shows how the number was reached and holds up when somebody reviews it a year later.

Why Quality Estimates

Quality Estimates has appraised for California public entities, joint powers authorities and the third-party administrators that serve them since 2016. Public fleets are a genuine mix — a city runs patrol cars, refuse trucks, backhoes and fire apparatus, and most appraisal firms can only handle the first of those. We handle all of it, and we document to the standard a claims audit expects rather than the standard a fast turnaround allows.

Quality Estimates, Inc. is an independent auto damage appraisal firm serving insurance carriers, MGAs, fleets, self-insured entities and risk managers across Los Angeles and Southern California, with desk review nationwide. We work for the carrier — never for a repair shop — so our estimates stay objective and defensible.
