6 Tips For Settling Your Property Damage Claim After a Car Accident (2022)

In this video, personal injury lawyer Nick Wagoner shares 6 tips for settling your property damage claim with the insurance company after a car accident.
According to members of the American auto-insurance industry, the average driver will be involved in four car accidents in their lifetime.
In most car wrecks, the vehicles that were involved in the accident require repairs. In cases where a car is damaged so badly in an accident that it's beyond repair, the owner may be forced to buy a new car or find an alternative form of transportation.
If your car needs to be repaired or replaced because of a car accident for which you were not at fault, you can file a "property damage claim" with the at-fault driver's insurance provider. In order to settle your property damage claim with the insurance company, you and the adjuster handling your claim must come to an agreement about the cost of repairing or replacing your damaged vehicle.
