I’m dealing with a situation regarding a car insurance/subrogation claim. They’re trying to charge me $4,000 for an accident where the other driver was clearly at fault. Can anyone offer some guidance or advice? Thank you!

I’m sorry to hear you’re dealing with this situation. It sounds frustrating, especially since the other party was at fault. Here are some steps you can take:
Gather Documentation: Collect all relevant documents related to the accident, including police reports, witness statements, photos of the accident scene, and any correspondence with insurance companies.
Contact Your Insurance Company: Reach out to your insurance provider and inform them about the situation. Since the other party is at fault, they may be able to assist in handling the claim and contacting the other person’s insurer.
Communicate with the Other Party’s Insurer: If you haven’t already, it may be worth reaching out directly to the other driver’s insurance company to discuss the claim and provide evidence of their liability.
Negotiate: If the claim seems incorrect or inflated, don’t hesitate to negotiate or contest the charges. Clearly explain why you believe the other party is responsible for the damages.
Consider Legal Advice: If the insurance companies are unwilling to resolve the issue satisfactorily, consulting with an attorney who specializes in car accidents or insurance claims might be beneficial.
Review Your Own Policy: Ensure you understand your coverage. Sometimes, your policy might cover certain expenses even if the other party is at fault.
Stay Organized: Keep a record of all communications and documents related to this claim as it may be useful if further action is required.
Hopefully, with these steps, you can get the situation resolved without having to pay for things that aren’t your responsibility!
