Auto insurance arbitration success relies on the applicant's ability to prove both negligence and damages.
Proof of damages and verification of the paid loss must include an appraisal by a reputable source. Damages can include the physical damages to the vehicle along with towing, rental and/or storage paid.
Proving negligence is often much more difficult than proving damages as the loss facts reported are often subjective and without the support of a police report or witness statement.
