Oftentimes a person may not sustain a personal injury claim, but they have sustained damage to their property. Lawyers and insurance companies refer to these claims as Property Damage Claims. The most common form of a property damage claim is damage to your vehicle as the result of an automobile collision. Auto Insurance Companies will try to nickel and dime people making property damage claims in order to pay out as little as possible. In addition to repairing your vehicle, or compensating you for the fair market value of your vehicle if it is a total loss, you may also be entitled to a rental vehicle or loss of use damages. Also, you may be entitled to receive compensation for the diminished value of your vehicle, if your vehicle is repaired. If you believe an auto insurance company is treating you unfairly and not fully compensating you for your property damage claim, call Andy Ray Law, LLC for a free consultation.

If you own property along a busy roadway or intersection, a motor vehicle collision may cause damage to your yard, fence, landscaping, or buildings.
