I looked around and found Pro Value Appraisals and called them up and spoke with Henry and after speaking to him I decided to use him to contest with the insurance company. This was totally the right move in a few days he got me thousands more than the insurance company was offering and took all the stress out of the process. I could not recommend Henry and Pro Value Appraisals any more highly call them you won't be disappointed.

I've never posted a review and been haunted by guilt for delaying in doing so. Gary appraised our home in a highly professional and personable manner. You will never find a nicer guy who has this degree of expertise. He was a wealth of information.

First time getting a jewelry appraisal and left with more than I expected! Patrick was…read moreprofessional, detailed and created a learning session for my friends and I. Three of us went in to obtain a neutral appraisal for diamond studs we purchased from a questionable jeweler. For background, jeweler did not provide GIA certificates after multiple contact attempts. Patrick explained every step of the process and genuinely took his time to teach us and answer our questions. As suspected, the quality of our studs was not as expected. Patrick was helpful in providing guidance as to how to approach the jeweler. Given the urgency of our situation, he kindly provided finalized appraisals sooner than expected! Value of service absolutely exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Patrick! Looking forward to our next appraisal with our upgraded studs.

Neil is not only a phenomenal car appraiser, but also such a kind and wonderful human being! He…read moretruly is such a gem and his expertise is reflected not only in how he handles cases, but also how he interacts with his clients; he is so intentional, meticulous, and kindhearted. Neil handled my situation with such grace that it would be an understatement to compare him to even a gazelle. Neil is more like a tiger; ingenious, patient, cunning, efficient, and humble. My case began in September of 2025 after someone drove into my Tesla and my insurance company USAA was grossly undervaluing my vehicle. The battle with my insurance company was a long and tumultuous one; constant sleepless nights worrying about having a car and getting my car back getting consumed by stress juggling the weight of an active dispute with my insurance company while being a full time student at UCLA. I had nearly given up; no attorney would take my case to help me get the money my car was worth, the California Department of Insurance reached out to USAA on various accounts for me and my insurance company continued to issue neglectful valuations. I had lost all hope- until I stumbled upon Neil. Neil was quick to assure me that he could assist me in my case, but he was calculated and analytical- he did not rashly boast that he would get me thousands upon thousands of more dollars. It was this demeanor that was so enchanting. Neil perfectly navigated the situation and by the end of it he was able to get me more than $10,000 extra dollars for my car, while simultaneously ensuring that the salvage retention value stayed the same. Neil truly is a wizard and a car pro. I could not recommend him enough- if you are in need of a car appraisal there really is no other option besides Neil Thomas- he truly is the absolute best.
