What is the name of your state? NE
I was rear ended and took on some bumper damage. The car is a work car and I really don't care to go to the hassle of getting it fixed. My insurance company told me to get an estimate and then they'll run it through the at fault driver's insurance company. Once the other driver's insurance company agrees to the estimate, will they only pay directly to the repair shop or do they send me a check? I have heard of people getting in small wrecks or getting hail damage and just getting sent a check for the estimate amount. I have never been in an accident or filed a claim so I don't know how that all works out.
