Auto adjusters are professionals who assess vehicle damage after accidents to determine the cost of repairs. They work for insurance companies and help ensure that claims are processed fairly and accurately. Their evaluations are based on factors like the extent of damage, repair costs, and the vehicle's pre-accident value. These adjusters often use technology, such as digital imaging and estimating software, to streamline their assessments. They may also communicate with mechanics and body shops to gather information and provide a comprehensive report. This process helps both the insurance company and the policyholder understand the financial implications of the accident.
