A Car Accident Lawyer Can Assist You With Accident Claims
Highly experienced car accident lawyers will tell their clients to make a comprehensive list of each item that qualifies for reimbursement with their insurance company. "This should be part of the letter of damages send to the insurance adjuster," says John Bisnar. "Unfortunately, many car crash victims try to settle their property damage claims without first consulting a car accident lawyer. Most lawyers advise against doing this. That's because car accident victims are typically overwhelmed by their accident and fail to consider anything but the loss of their vehicle. Many times, they won't list expensive navigation systems, CD and DVD players, custom wheels and other pricey aftermarket accessories."
If the damaged car was an expensive Porsche, Mercedes or other high-end vehicle that had to be repaired, these vehicles will suffer considerably in resale value. Keep in mind that insurance companies are driven to cut costs and offer you only minimal reimbursements for your damages. As soon as you sign a release of property damage claims, you can't claim any more items you may have forgotten to list. It's the same with the depreciation of your repaired vehicle. If it's not on the list of damages, it's your loss.
