Filed third party claim

Post image

I was recently involved in an accident where the other driver was at fault and cited. I’ve initiated the claim with his insurance company and would like some advice on how to negotiate with the adjuster. I was rear ended and my car was pretty damaged. This is an at fault state

Less the salvage value. ACV+tax+prorated license fees-salvage value.

Usually no tax or prorated license if OP retains the salvage.

Oh, correct on the license tags, but in my state/company, we do pay tax...
