Be sure to put in a claim for diminished value as well as the repair. If they say no, tell them you're going to lawyer up.

How much could the diminished value be.............$1000? No lawyer is going to take a case like that on a contingency basis. The original poster would spend more than that on the lawyer's hourly rates.

Since you did an insurance claim it will come up on carfax. Being that it was in a wreck the value of your car dropped a few thousand on resale.

Since the wreck wasn't your fault you shouldn't have to take that financial hit so that's why you should file the DV claim.

The shop did a good job. happy with the results. As far as the diminished value...not worth it going down that route.
