re: Question about diminished value claim

quote:

---

The insurance company(All State) is the other persons since they were the ones to hit my daughter's car. They paid for the car to be repaired, but they are offering $500 for diminished value. They are saying only $500 since it was involved in a prior accident.

so they already paid the $4500, and are offering $500 extra to compensate you for reduced value of vehicle? it sounded like they offered you $500 total from earlier posts .

if it were me, i'd call, tell them $500 sounds low and that you are considering consulting an attorney. they will probably throw a higher offer at you. take time to think about it. if it's still not enough, consider an attorney. however, this seems like it will likely be too little money for an attorney imo
