Consulting

At Boston Estate Appraisal, we will be happy to sit down and have a one-on-one conversation with you regarding your estate and/or insurance needs.

Expert Witness

In trial or with legal problems, a strong, accurate appraisal is vital. At Boston Estate Appraisal, we pride ourselves in utilizing our expertise to best suit your needs. Our knowledge of Gems, Jewelry, Fine Sterling, China, and Objects of Art has been acquired over a 40 year career in the industry. We are available to present unquestionable testimony regarding the authenticity and/or value of your items as needed.

Claims Mitigation

Insurance is a fact of modern life and a comfort for policyholders when a claimable loss occurs. It is comforting to know that in the event of loss or damage to your jewelry and other objects of art, an insurance policy is in place to cover any loss you may incur. At Boston Estate Appraisal, we have created relationships with insurance companies and independent brokers over a 40 year career in the industry. We have the ability to find the right people to follow up with answering any questions that may arise enabling us to assist in the timely resolution of your claim.

Digital Imagery and Cataloging

In instances where an inquiry is made about the history of an item, its manner of acquisition, and/or its physical appearance, our digital images and accompanying catalogue create a complete picture of your insured items. While all our appraisals and reports are available with this service, we also offer this as a separate service as needed.

Insurance Portfolio Management

A new concept for your insurance needs. All your insurance appraisals are “bundled” into one complete portfolio containing descriptions, photos, and valuations of your jewelry, antiques, sterling silver, china, fine art, and collectibles. We then manage that portfolio on a yearly basis: making additions and deletions; updating valuations based on market fluctuation; and working on your behalf with your bank, your attorney, and your insurance company to guarantee seamless coverage. The result is complete comfort in the knowledge that you are protected against loss.
