I'm from Nevada.
I honestly just wanna know if I have a case to take to small claims because I really think I'm getting screwed.
So I switched cars with my gf because my car was running low on fuel, (both cars are under my name)but one of the cars is hers. I couldn't go because I was working so I gave her permission to use my car to put gas in it. She didnt get the car till around 8:30ish at night during my lunch.
Its not until my last break , which is at 10:00pm that I got a call from her crying that she had crashed my car into another car. She was at fault for the accident.
Long story short, my car got totaled and my insurance is only willing to pay 7,000 out of the 10,000 I had left on my car.
My gf gave me two options of either 1. I can take her car ( that's under my name) which she only paid 1000 for and have me pay the rest or sell her car for 2 grand or 2. Give her the car and shell help me by paying half of the 3,000. But I do need a car for work asap.
To me both offers are bad, either way I would end up paying for something I didn't even do.But she's so positive I won't get anything because I gave her permission to take the car. My family is pushing me to take her to small claims but I just want to be positive that I have a case and can get the money to pay the rest.
