Owners & collision shops · Independent
We work the claim side of collision repair. Owners get help with total losses and any insurance or repair problem. Shops get complex claims documented and followed up.
01 · Services
A claim can go wrong at the value, the estimate, or the repair. We help vehicle owners across the Kansas City metro with all three, and we help collision shops document complex claims and follow them through.
When the offer won't replace your vehicle or pay off the loan, we go through the valuation with you.
A short estimate, a denied supplement, a repair that stalled or went wrong. We review it, document it, and help you put your side in writing.
Complex claims slow a shop down. We document estimates and supplements to OEM procedure and help you follow up, so your team stays on the repair.
02 · Process
Claims stall when steps get skipped. We take them in order and in writing, whether you own the vehicle or repair it.
We read the policy, the estimate or valuation, and the claim file, then tell you plainly where it stands.
Every finding is photographed and written up: estimate lines citing OEM procedures, or valuation errors with comparables behind them.
We prepare the supplement or valuation response for you to send. When the carrier answers, we help you write the reply.
The documentation is yours to keep. Owners can take it to any shop. Shops keep it with the claim file. We stay with you until the claim closes.
03 · The claim file
Owners get a written record of where the claim stands. Shops get supplements documented before they reach the carrier. Both come from the same file.
Written from a walk-around and photos. Required procedures aren't on it yet.
$3,900We read the estimate, the policy and the photos, and list what's missing.
Day 1Repair procedures pulled for the exact VIN, so every line has a source.
OEM specEvery line written and photographed, citing the procedure behind it.
48 hrSupplements documented and followed up, in writing, until the claim closes.
$8,9702.3x average approved repair vs. first offer. The difference is what the review and the documentation found.
The policy, the estimate, the photos, and the procedures are checked before anything is submitted. Gaps are found now, not three weeks into the repair, when a supplement means another round of waiting.
Every operation on the estimate cites the published procedure for the VIN. When an adjuster asks why a line is there, the answer is already in the file.
Each finding goes into the claim file with a photo and the OEM procedure attached. The owner keeps a copy for any shop they choose, and the repair shop works from the same record.
They totaled my truck at a number that wouldn't pay off my loan. Collision Strategy rewrote the estimate with the Ford procedures attached and stayed on the claim with me for six weeks. Every answer I gave the adjuster had paperwork behind it.
Est. 2026 · Blue Springs, Missouri
A denied supplement, a low valuation, a repair the carrier won't cover: we document it, cite the procedure or comparable behind it, and tell you where the claim stands, in writing, every time. Vehicle owners pay nothing for the first review.

04 · FAQ
Yes — it's the most common thing we help with. We go through the carrier's valuation report line by line: the comparable vehicles they picked, the mileage and condition adjustments, and the options they missed. We also produce a documented repair cost, because some total-loss calls don't survive an accurate estimate. If the number is still wrong, we help you prepare the paperwork to invoke the appraisal clause in your policy — a formal process that takes the value out of the adjuster's hands.
Yes — send the estimate and photos of the damage. We check it against the manufacturer's published procedures for your VIN and give you a written list of what's missing: skipped operations, underpaid labor, and parts written as repair that should be replaced.
Send us what you have: the estimate, the denial letter, the shop's notes, and photos. We review it, document where things stand, and help you put your side in writing for the adjuster or the shop.
In most states, no — the vehicle owner chooses the repair facility. We have no direct-repair contracts. Send us your policy and we'll point you to the wording that applies.
Yes. We help collision shops with the claim side: supplements documented to OEM procedure, estimate reviews before a file goes to the carrier, and claims that have stalled. Call and ask about the Strategy Network, our log in for partner shops.
