Your client's car
lost value too.
We collect it.
Diminished value is real money most injury clients never see, because it is small enough to be a distraction and technical enough to be a fight. Refer it to Fender Financial. We buy the claim, send your client $500 when they sign, and forward the rest, less our flat $350 fee, when the carrier pays. Your injury case stays yours.

One referral.
Nothing else on your desk.
The diminished value claim is property damage, not injury. We take it entirely off your plate and keep your client informed.
- 01
Your client's car was hit by an at-fault driver
Even after a full repair, a vehicle with an accident on its record is worth less. That loss belongs to your client, and the at-fault carrier owes it.
- 02
You refer the claim through your firm's portal
Upload the repair estimate or RO and one photo of the damage. Add the police report if you have it. The handoff takes about two minutes.
- 03
We buy the claim. Your client gets paid.
Fender Financial purchases the diminished value claim, texts your client once for a signature, and sends a $500 check on signing. We then pursue the insurer ourselves and forward the balance, less our fee, when they pay.
Property damage your client is owed, without the hours it takes to collect it.
Client paid up front
$500 goes to your client when they sign, theirs whether or not the carrier pays. The rest, less our flat $350 fee, follows when the carrier settles.
Separate from the injury claim
Diminished value is a property damage claim on the vehicle. We work it independently of your bodily injury case and contact your client only about the vehicle.
Zero staff time
No demand letters, no valuation reports, no carrier follow-ups. One upload and you are done.
We coordinate on the release
Before you settle the injury case, we confirm the release carves out the assigned property damage claim, so nothing you sign affects it.
Attorney-developed evidence
Our licensed attorneys, based in Illinois, build the market evidence behind every claim we submit.
Nothing paid to the firm
No referral fee in either direction, so there is nothing to disclose or split. A dedicated portal for your firm, a partner rep who picks up the phone, and nothing to sign beyond the client's assignment.
