Do You Have a Diminished Value Claim?
After your auto accident, the insurance company responsible for paying for your vehicle repairs may not have paid you EVERYTHING it owes you under the law. North Carolina law not only entitles you to compensation for the repairs to your vehicle, but also for the loss in value your vehicle has sustained as a result of your auto accident.
Consider this hypothetical: You are the owner of a new, low-mileage vehicle that is damaged by another driver in a car accident. Now, not only are you thinking about getting your vehicle repaired, but you are also concerned about your vehicle losing its value due to the collision.
You would likely have several questions:
- Is my vehicle worth less now that it has been in an accident?
- What happens when I try to sell my vehicle? Will I be offered less?
- How can I be compensated for the value my vehicle has lost from the accident?
