They prepare insurance claim forms and provide estimated benefits coverage based on the individual policy and the value of the vehicle as well as the cost of damage repairs. As part of their efforts to secure a better price for their firm and quality repairs for their clients, they may confer or negotiate directly with automobile repair shops.

If a vehicle has been totaled, they calculate the salvage value. An extensive knowledge of automobile repair as well as a working knowledge of automobile repair industry pricing is crucial for this occupation. A minimum of a high school diploma or equivalent is required for this occupation, as is significant technical knowledge.
