If you have collision coverage, make a claim on your own insurance and stop dealing with the other driver's insurer. Your insurer will total the car, pay you the fair market value, and then get the money back from the other driver's insurers including the deductible.

If everything you said was accurate, then the answer to your question would be “yes.” Insurers don’t deny claims as you have described. Either it contends you are at fault, or disputes the amount of damage, or claims that it didn’t insure the car or the driver. Have an attorney review... Read more »
