  • Timeframes vary by insurer; we track progress and keep you informed.
  • FAQ-style guidance

    Q: How long does a total loss claim take?

    A: Timing depends on insurer response, surveyor availability and documentation completeness. Typical ranges can be days to a few weeks; we aim to shorten delays by preparing documents and following up on your behalf.

    Q: Will I get the market value for my car?

    A: Insurers calculate settlement based on policy terms, market value, mileage and condition before the loss. We help present evidence to justify market value where appropriate.

    Q: Do I have to handle salvage myself?

    A: Not usually. We coordinate salvage pickup or storage and manage transfer as required by the insurer.

    Q: Can you help with finance or bank settlement on financed vehicles?

    A: Yes. We can coordinate with your finance provider to ensure settlement is processed correctly and outstanding liens are addressed.

    Practical tips to speed your claim

  • Report promptly to police and insurer and obtain claim reference numbers.
  • Take clear photos of the scene and damage immediately.
  • Keep all original documents ready or provide certified copies.
  • Provide honest, consistent statements to police and insurer.
  • When to contact AL SAHRAA

    Contact us as soon as a total loss is suspected or when you receive an initial insurer assessment. Early involvement helps avoid delays and reduces ambiguity in settlement and salvage steps.
