During the weekend, round my area.. it hailed.. Sadly enough my car was at the smash repairers and was damaged badly… Who is liable and legally responsible for the damage? Does the smash repairers or me have to pay the excess for the insurance claim?
If anybody out there has any advice regarding my situation that would be much appreciated…
Cheers,
Jay

**********************************Hi Jay,
If you want accurate advice, I would ring your insurance company, or legal aid or a lawyer.
Your car I take it, is worth a fair bit of money, so asking a property investing forum may not be to your best advantage.
Sorry to hear about the damage. We have a farm and have suffered large losses this spring due to hail, wind & frost. It’s a pity we can’t sue mother nature.
Good luck,[

Common sense would say if you had control of the car it would be between you and the insurance company to pay.
Ask yourself what exists in the contractual relationship you have with the pannel beater that would mean that they would protect your car.
The pannel beater might have a “goods in custody” policy.
Cood luck trying to get it out of the pannel beater if he doesn’t!
Thanks for your responses… I might take your advice Del and see a lawyer…
Cheers,
Jay
