What is the name of your state? Alaska
I was rearended while turning. I called the insurance company of the driver who hit me. After a run around they finally took responsibility for damages. I am told that the rear axle needs to be replaced and the frame is bent. The question is...Do I have to accept his insurance company's settlement to fix my axle and straighten the frame? I have been told that once a frame is bent that I will have problems for the rest of the cars lifetime. I was told by his insurance company to just not tell the person that I sell it to that it has been in a wreck as Alaska is a non reporting state for wrecks to carfax. To me that is unethical and not an option. What are my real legal options? I have a lawyer for personal injury already. I am now worried about my SUV. Thanks
