Automobile Accident Attorneys Advise on Vehicle Repairs in Tampa, Clearwater, St Petersburg, Orlando, Pasco County, and Beyond

At Kennedy Law Group, we specialize in getting you the financial justice you deserve in the wake of your crash. Our automobile accident attorneys routinely win settlements for hospital bills, surgeries, lost wages, and other expenses associated with your crash injuries. While we can also pursue property damage compensation as part of your case, it’s often a driver’s responsibility to file a claim for damage to their vehicle.

• But, in order to ensure that you are educated on the damage claim process, our attorneys offer you the following information: If your insurance company determines that your vehicle is a “total loss” that means the cost of repairing the accident damage exceeds the cost of replacing it. The insurance company will determine this value by looking at cars very similar to yours and what they are selling for. But, you can argue for greater value if you have documents that prove that upgrades, maintenance, and repairs were made to the vehicle before the crash or if you can find comparable vehicles for sale at a higher price.
• Many insurance policies have clauses that provide you with a rental vehicle if yours can’t be driven. Make sure to ask about this, as your insurance company may not volunteer the information.
• If you are filing a personal injury claim in addition to your vehicle damage claim and you’re speaking with automobile accident attorneys, make sure to tell your insurance company this and let your lawyer handle all questions regarding your injury.
• Before you sign any paperwork for a vehicle damage settlement, let your personal injury attorney see it to ensure that it won’t affect your injury claim.

While getting an honest settlement for your vehicle is truly important, don’t overlook the value of your health. If you were injured in the accident you deserve to receive the coverage you pay for every month.
