When I represent you on your injury claim,I handle your property damage at no charge.
The repair estimate is too low. The total loss offer won’t replace your vehicle. The rental gets cut off. Nobody mentions your car is now worth less because it has a crash on its history.
Most injury firms tell you to handle the car yourself. I don’t. If I represent you on your injury claim, I handle the property damage too, and I don’t take a fee from it.

At no charge for my injury clients.
You choose the repair shop. The insurer can recommend one, but you don’t have to use it.
The insurer owes what your car was worth before the crash. Their valuation report isn’t the final word.
A reasonable rental while your car is repaired or replaced.
A crash history lowers resale value. You can claim it against the at fault driver’s insurer.
If you used your own collision coverage, I work to get your deductible back.
The injury claim is where I focus. The car comes with it.
I know how property damage gets valued. I spent years on the insurance side. I know why the first number is low.
I keep the two claims from hurting each other. Adjusters use property damage calls to ask about your injuries. I handle those calls.
I handle it personally. You call me, not a property damage department.
The at fault driver’s insurer pays. Florida requires property damage liability coverage. It pays to fix or replace your car when the other driver caused the crash.
Or use your own collision coverage. It can pay faster. You pay your deductible, and your insurer can try to recover it.
Diminished value. Most Florida auto policies don’t pay diminished value on your own collision claim. You make it against the at fault driver’s insurer.
Steps that protect your claim.
Correct. When I represent you on your injury claim, I handle the property damage at no charge.
A claim for the value your car lost because it now has a crash history.
Don’t sign. Their number can be challenged with comparable sales and your car’s real condition.
My no charge property damage help is for my injury clients. If your claim is only for your car, call me and I’ll point you in the right direction.
Every case is handled by me. Not assistants, case managers, or call centers.
