Diminished Value in California
The accident history of a car involved in a collision significantly decreases its value and often presents safety issues.
This decreased value is called “Diminished Value,” and occurs because most people won’t buy a vehicle that has been in an accident without a significant price discount. Diminished Value is the difference between the market value of a car prior to a collision and its reduced value following an accident and subsequent repair.

How is Diminished Value Calculated?
While the ending value of a diminished value claim is based on the negotiations of your diminished value attorney, there are some things that can preemptively help you calculate the money you may be losing. If a vehicle has lost value due to an accident the owner is entitled two things:
- The difference between its value before the accident and its lesser value after repairs.
- The reasonable cost of repairs.
Keeping both these aspects in mind will help us negotiate the most value possible for your claim. The last thing to remember is that the total amount recovered cannot exceed the vehicle’s value before the accident occurred.
