Your personal injury attorney should always be willing to help with your property damage claim, but many clients handle most of it themselves. That said, here what you should know about your property damage.

Warning: Property damage adjusters work for insurance companies alone – so NEVER discuss your injuries with them and NEVER meet them in person.

If the accident was not your fault, you can make a claim through your own insurance company to cover the cost of repairs on your car, or reimbursement for a totaled vehicle. Many times your insurance will require you to pay a deductible. Then, your insurance will request reimbursement from the other driver’s insurance. You can also choose to deal directly with the other person’s insurance company to reimburse you for your repairs or loss, but it might be easier on you to let your adjuster deal with their adjuster.
