Property Damage Claims

Representing the Injured in Nevada

When you are injured in a car accident, your personal injury claim is handled separately from your vehicle damage claim—or property damage claim. While personal injury claims can often take months to settle, typically, property damage claims can be settled quickly and without the assistance of an attorney.

The Las Vegas car accident attorneys at Richard Harris Law Firm don't handle property damage claims, but we can answer your questions to help you get the compensation you're owed for your vehicle's damage. Call us today at (702) 444-4444 or complete a free initial consultation form.

Property Damage Checklist

• Contact your insurance company to report your accident.
• Check for personal items if a tow truck takes your car.
• Decide if you want to use your own insurance to cover the damages.
• Contact the other driver's insurance company. Take note of who you talk to and the claim number.
• Have your car's damage appraised by a body shop.
• If your car is totaled, determine its actual cash value.
• Request a rental car from the insurance company if your car cannot be driven.

If you have trouble dealing with the insurance company, or don't feel that you're being treated fairly, our auto injury attorneys are happy to help you find a lawyer who can help you settle your property damage claim.
