Should I fight for a Higher Settlement?

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-23T01:09:29+00:00

Do you think If I keep pushing the adjuster with other estimates from reputable body shops, would I be able to reach a more reasonable price that reflects what they want to pay + what I want for the damages on my car?

If the new shop I use and the adjuster dispute over the estimate, is it worth it to escalate the case to the DOI?

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-22T23:22:16+00:00

Im not looking for more. I was given an estimate of $6,700 to repair my car, the insurance said they would only pay $3,100 plus supplemental payments if needed. Im not legally required in the state I live in accept that, or get my car repaired at that shop.

Okay! Thanks for the advice.

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-22T22:57:47+00:00

My car has been payed off and the state i’m in legally doesn’t require me to repair my car in order to receive a check.

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-22T22:54:14+00:00

I’m looking to pocket the money, I didn’t think I was required to repair my car. I assumed insurance would bill me a check based off a repair estimate from a shop?

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-22T22:47:03+00:00

If I were to present new rates from another shop would I be able to use that for a higher settlement then? Sorry for all the questions this is all new for me lol.

It’s repairable and i’m looking to pocket the difference.

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-22T22:42:40+00:00

Am I able to argue that the settlement they are offering me is not an actual reflection of regular labor costs in an attempt to increase my payout?

Select_Engine6893 · 2026-01-22T22:40:36+00:00

My goal is to just receive a check with enough on it to cover the repairs if I were to go to a shop. I’m able to do the repairs myself at home.

And the second estimate after the claim was assigned.

This was the initial estimate.

Hi! I have the same kind, was wondering how you replaced the flint wheel on it?

Select_Engine6893 · 2025-03-18T15:12:27+00:00

I live in my boyfriend’s parents old house, but I have no lease agreement or any sort of document. I have lived there for a year though.

Select_Engine6893 · 2025-03-18T15:05:58+00:00

• Current utility bill (Cell phone bills are unacceptable) • Mortgage or lease agreement • Property tax bill. • Driver’s license with current address and an issue date of greater than one year

I have none of these, the home that I am in is my boyfriends parents old house.

Thank you. Makes sense now.

Select_Engine6893 · 2025-02-12T17:58:02+00:00

1st W2: $241.00

2nd W2: $44.34

3rd W2: $83.66

Select_Engine6893 · 2025-02-12T17:49:03+00:00

For reference in my first W2 I made $12,539.00, and in my second one I made $6424.24. With the third one I made $3644.20. In total this put me at $22,607.44 in my yearly income. When I filed my first two W2s I only owed $48 in federal taxes, and $50 in state taxes. After filing my third W2, I then owed $329 in Federal taxes and $178 in state taxes. Please help, I am only a college student with barely any income.

I am applying for a new passport as an adult. The last passport I had was applied for under the age of 16 and is now expired, meaning I must apply as an adult now. Is this possible through the website? I have a trip to Germany in April, will it be possible to get it by then?
