What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut
I was in an accident yesterday other driver was at fault both he and the cop said. It was a pretty good hit, my car will almost certainly be declared a loss. He was leaving a garage lot and pulled out right as I was getting there and I hit his left-front.
Outside of being nervous to drive again. I'm nervous I won't get what I need (a car) out of this to make me whole. I owe $4,700 on the $7,000 original loan.
I put the claim in and instructed my inseurance company to get it from the other driver's insurance. These cars (2002 Mitsubishi Galant) are worth anywhere from $6,500-$7,000 still. I worry I will get a little less or just enough to pay off the loan. Not sure how to negotiate these sorts of things.
What should I be entitled to and what should I be doing at this point? I have my claim in. I'm not good with this sort of stuff. What if they only will pay off the loan and nothing is leftover? I don't have the money right now to put a down payment on a car right now.
I don't wanna put anyone through any more trouble than I have to. The guy was kind enough to be more concerned about me than himself. As I, him.
I can fill in any information needed.
