Hey there, sorry for the delay - I used:
Accurate Auto Body (Redmond, WA)
9042 Willows Rd NE
Redmond, WA 98052
425-587-5711
https://www.accurateautobodywa.com

I got lucky and ended up w/ Randy White who is a manager there, and certainly knows not only Land Rovers well but auto repair in general - he's been at the shop a long time. They've ended up with folks from various manufacturers / OEMs working for them too, they seem to be so good.

I believe the other certified place in WA is "Crash Champions Collision Repair Redmond" which is about a stones throw away from Accurate Auto Body... don't know much about them, other then they are the only shop in their chain (they're all over the Seattle metro and possibly elsewhere - not sure) that is Land Rover certified.

Hope that helps if you should ever need significant repair!

I got rear ended so hard on the freeway that the car in front of me was totaled.
The driver of the pickup was too busy not paying attention that the construction zone and stopped traffic surprised her. My Mercedes GLA was totaled. I walked away with bruised palms. I saw the impact coming and pushed myself into the back of my seat.
i was lucky she had reputable insurance.

On May 7, 2022, while riding my bicycle, a woman decided looking at her phone wa more important than paying attention to operating a 2 ton machine. Somehow, I came away with only scrapes and a dislocated shoulder. She had low rent insurance. I layered up immediately. 17 months later, they finally paid. sadly, lawyers generally only take personal injury cases as there is a better payday than personal property damage.

I hope your repair costs get sorted.
