IME, it’s best to go thru your own insurance company. The downside is you have to pay the deductible. But it’s less headaches all around.
I will never deal with “the other guy’s” insurance company ever again.
I did the “go through other guys insurance “ once. I will never do that again. Yes, you have to pay your deductible right away but if they determine it isn’t your fault, you will get it back.
My first wreck in my in my previous car I went through the other company. I was in the left lane of a one way and they were in the other. At an intersection they turned left directly into my path. I was looking straight ahead and didn’t see them pull out of a parking lot and somehow they didn’t see me. Did about 6,000 in damage to my car. After two weeks their insurance determined they were 90% at fault and I was 10% because I didn’t try to avoid the accident. I ended up going through mine as I was unwilling to accept any responsibility. It was a two week repaid process and I ended up paying for two days of car rental since I had the car over 30 days. Save yourself the headache even though it should be their fault and go through yours.
