What is the name of your state? WV
My son backed into a parked vehicle, we notified the owner and the police, no violations were issued, the cop said contact respective insurance agencies or settle between each other. I told the woman to get an estimate, I would write a check for that - she said ok. Then her mom called and said that wasn't acceptable - they wanted me to pay the body shop that they had selected themselves and to pay for a rental while the woman's car was in the shop. I said, ok, but I would like for the woman to sign an agreement which stated that I would pay for repairs and the rental directly to the respective companies and that I would be release from any further liability with regard to this incident. She said ok. I wrote an agreement stated all this, made 2 copies, signed each one and gave them to the woman. NOW, the woman's parents are telling her not to sign any agreement. I want to get this incident settled once and for all. I think I need to have a release of liability so that they don't keep coming back saying ,, the car didn't used to make this noise, it doesn't run as good as it used to, etc.
What do I do if they refuse to sign the agreement and release???
