Specialties
ihr-gutachten.com GmbH is an independent automotive expert appraisal firm (Kfz-Sachverständigenbüro) based in Berlin, Germany. Founded in 2013, we work Berlin-wide and specialize exclusively in vehicle damage assessments for third-party liability claims - that is, accidents between two motorized road users in which our client is not at fault.
If you are involved in a car accident that was not your fault, you have the right to choose your own independent appraiser, and the at-fault driver's insurer generally covers the cost of the report. Our team includes TÜV Rheinland-certified assessors Michael Kroitzsch (Certipedia ID 0000045004, certified since 2014) and Karsten Look (Certipedia ID 0217465566), who document all relevant damage to your vehicle - repair costs, diminished market value (Wertminderung), and loss of use - so that your claim rests on a neutral, professional assessment.
Fast on-site service is central to what we do: one of our appraisers reaches you at the accident or repair location within 60 minutes to record the damage. We serve Berlin and the surrounding region, and our reports are prepared to meet the standards required by insurers, lawyers, and courts. In most cases, we bill our fee directly to the at-fault driver's insurer - so there are usually no upfront costs for you.
History
Established in 2013.
Founded in 2013 in Berlin as a partnership (GbR) with three partners, the firm was converted into a GmbH in 2014. In 2019, Borris Häring - one of the original founders - took over as sole shareholder and managing director, modernizing the firm's processes and expanding its service. Its TÜV Rheinland-certified assessors, Karsten Look (Certipedia ID 0217465566) and Michael Kroitzsch (Certipedia ID 0000045004, certified since 2014), stand for consistently high quality. Throughout its history - including the Corona years, when accident volumes fell during lockdowns - ihr-gutachten.com GmbH has remained a reliable partner to its clients. Today it is an established Berlin automotive appraisal firm known for fast response times, clear communication, and independent claims handling from the first phone call to final payout.
