Well, I've got to chime in too. There are two reasons to consult a lawyer and keep your mouth shut. You may have something wrong with you and it hasn't shown up yet, and insurance companies get a whole lot happier about settling property damage claims in a generous manner when you have a potential bodily injury claim that you're willing to forget. The lawyer, of course doesn't care anything about your car. He/she just wants to make a quick buck on the P.I.(personal injury) claim without going to court. All this of course depends who had insurance and what coverages are in play.

If you have full coverage it is your' collision' coverage that fixes your car. If you only have liability it is 'uninsured motorist property damage coverage' that covers your loss. Don't get this coverage mixed up with 'uninsured motorist bodily injury coverage'. U.M.P.D. and U.M.B.I. is optional you may or may not have it but with a nice car like you have I would hope you have full coverage.

Unless there is a potential for some bodily injury money a lawyer will charge you, but most P.I. lawyers will give you a free consultation.

I've never sued anyone and I've had ample opportunities. So no one should construe what I wrote as pro law suit. I just know some insurance policies have a "we don't pay claims clause" lol and you have to watch your back.
