My husband and I were seeking advice regarding fair compensation for the diminished value on our vehicle.Bryce Williams was very friendly, patient, well-informed, and extremely helpful. He answered all my questions and provided additional information that was very helpful in aiding my understanding of calculating the diminished value and determining what was an appropriate sum for us to seek to collect from the insurance carrier.My only comment on the negative side of the consultation is only regarding the timeliness of the consultation as we did have to wait about one month for an appointment. However, this is a very minor thing, in my opinion, and the level of service I received was superior. I did not deduct any stars from my review due to this factor.
