State - CA. Hello, my brand new car (Mercedes.B E350 2006 less then 2 weeks old) was hit while parallel parked on the street. It was hit by driving school car while a student driver was operating a vehicle. A note was left for me with the insurance information etc. My questions are - 1. what should I do? I already filed a claim with my insurance and with insurance of a party that hit me, however since the car is a leased car I believe I might be hold responsible for damage done to a car at the end of a lease (it was hit very badly) 2. Is there any way to get out of that lease now? I am paying for a new car and it is damaged now. I will not be able to drive it for at least 3 weeks - but I still have to pay for it out of my pocket - (should not the other insurance be liable for it? ). What should I do? Should I get a lawyer to represent me? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kaya
p.s. the car was parked at a designated location and the accident was not my fault.
