Q: my insurance company is lowballing me I believe on my motorcycle damaged settlement claim. They asked for receipts which
They asked for receipts which I supplied in the amount of $87736.79. They countered at $3500. This is a custom built motorcycle. What do you recommend in this request for information?
A:
A California attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for four weeks. Until you can arrange meaningful guidance from a local attorney, as a general matter, these types of property damage adjustments can be difficult. Most of the industry is cookie-cutter, based on standard makes, models, mileages, and trim levels. Custom vehicles can present challenges. A California attorney might be able to advise more meaningfully after reviewing the claim, any professional appraisals of the motorcycle if available, and other details. Good luck
