Early on in the claim the insured insurance carrier stated that they would reimburse reasonable rental if their insured was at fault. The out of pocket expenses were $4300 and they are offering to pay $1800. Do I have any recourse?

Wow this is a great question and one I have not thought about before. I would ask the at fault driver's carrier to cover the cost of replacement under the property damage portion of their claim. Remember that they should cover all property lost or damaged as a result of the accident. If there... View More

In addition to the medicals, you... View More
