Property Damage Claims in Florida
If you own a car damaged in an accident, whether you were driving, someone else was driving, or it was parked, you have a claim for damage to your vehicle. This is a property damage claim. Property damage claims seem to produce very strong emotions in the owner. You might have trouble getting to work, you might need your vehicle as part of your work, or you may not want to be seen driving in a damaged car. If you have a property damage claim, you must first understand what the law requires. If someone damages your vehicle, you are entitled to receive repairs or replacement to put you back in the position you were in before your accident. There are two ways to handle your property damage claim. You can present the claim to your own insurance company under your collision coverage, or you can proceed against the at fault driver’s insurance provider. Both options have pros and cons. It depends completely on the individual claim. If you have collision insurance, you can have your car repaired or replaced by your own insurance company. This will usually require you to pay a deductible, which varies with each policy, and this out of pocket payment clearly is a disadvantage over liability insurance. However, there are scenarios where this is the best way for you to handle your claim. One such situation is when the at-fault driver’s insurance company’s policy limits are insufficient to pay for your vehicle damage. Many people have the lowest policy limits allowed by law. That is the least expensive policy, and therefore the most common. Find out how much the other insurance company has available to repair or replace your car. If it is not enough, you will need to present a collision claim to your own insurance company. Even commercial vehicles, which usually have at least $1,000,000 in coverage, can sometimes be in jeopardy, but this is rarely an issue if you are hit by a company vehicle, or even by someone driving their own vehicle if he is working for a company at the time. If you are hit by a personal car, and the limits are insufficient, you might want to find out if the driver was working at the time because it could implicate the commercial insurance policy of the employer. If you are not at fault, your insurance company will collect as much as possible from the tortfeasor’s company, and this will include your deductible, so you may be fully reimbursed.
