San Antonio, TX asked in Car Accidents for Texas

Q: by law am I required to show the receipt on how much I paid to have my car fix to the person that hit my car? I'm in TX

The girl that hit our truck was uninsured. Now to pay for the damages she is demanding a copy of the receipt of the place that fix it.

By law do I have to show or give her a copy of that receipt?

Thank you for your time.

A: If it was fixed yes, she has a right to see the bill. If it wasn't fixed she has a right to see an estimate. If you were hurt you may have an uninsured motorist claim so contact a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Assn--they give free consults.
