If you've been in a car accident that was someone else's fault, understanding your options can be tricky. Here's a simplified breakdown:
- Gather evidence: After an accident, get details (insurance info, photos, witnesses, etc.). Report it to your insurer, even if it seems minor.
- Determining fault: Insurers will work out who's to blame. This could be quick or might get complicated.
- Assessing your losses: This is more than just car repairs. It could include medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses due to the accident.
- Negotiations: If you have a valid claim, the insurers will try to agree on a settlement amount.
- Potential court case: If a fair settlement can't be reached, going to court is a last resort, which can be lengthy.
