That is what this service is for: a factual assessment of home electronics. Laptop, PC, TV, smartphone, tablet, console, monitor, printer, audio system and whatever else you have standing around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Damage cases.<\/strong> A device has been dropped, has taken on liquid, has survived a power surge \u2013 or has not. We establish what is damaged, whether the damage fits the described sequence of events, what the repair costs and what the device was worth immediately before the damage. Those four figures are what insurers and opposing parties usually want to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Disputes and proceedings.<\/strong> When a dealer, a repair shop or an insurer takes a different view, a solid written report helps more than an assertion. We produce <strong>private expert reports<\/strong> \u2013 reports commissioned by one party, which you can submit out of court or bring into proceedings through your lawyer. They contain findings, reasoning, photos and a traceable derivation of the figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What a private expert report is not:<\/strong> the court-appointed expert report. Only the court commissions that one, and it picks the person itself. A private report is a party submission \u2013 it is read, it is weighed, and it is often the reason a matter never reaches court at all. Where it cannot help, we tell you beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Independent means independent.<\/strong> In Germany the term \u201cSachverst\u00e4ndiger\u201d (expert) is not a protected title \u2013 nobody here is publicly appointed or sworn in, and we do not pretend otherwise. What we bring is daily practice with exactly these devices. We tell you what we see, how we arrive at it and where our assessment reaches its limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is deliberately not a sales pitch. It happens regularly that the honest answer is \u201cleave it\u201d \u2013 and then that is what it says. And if a finding goes against you, you hear it from us and not from the other side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Typical questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What is the device still worth today \u2013 for a sale, for insurance or for a decision?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What exactly is broken and what is causing it?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Does the damage fit the described sequence of events \u2013 or do the findings speak against it?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What does the repair cost, and what was the device worth before?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is a repair still worth it, or is the money better spent elsewhere?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is this cost estimate reasonable? A second opinion before you agree.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Was a previous repair carried out properly?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is this second-hand device any good \u2013 before you buy it?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What you get, and in what form:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Spoken or briefly by e-mail \u2013 for a quick decision<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A short written assessment \u2013 if you want something in hand<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A detailed private expert report with findings, reasoning, photos and figures \u2013 for submission to an insurer, the opposing party or a lawyer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Write to us below and tell us what it is about. Anything you already have \u2013 invoices, proof of purchase, cost estimates, damage reports, photos or an earlier report \u2013 you can send by e-mail at any time.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchmal ist die eigentliche Frage nicht \u201ekann man das reparieren\u201c, sondern \u201ewas ist hier \u00fcberhaupt los\u201c \u2013 und wer das schriftlich best\u00e4tigt.
