Re: Car Damage

Send copies of your bills to the local district attorney and the court will order the driver to pay restitution. Also sue the owner in small claims court. If you were injured, call a lawyer right away. Watch out for legal time limits.

You promptly sue the driver and registered owner[s]. If under $7500 in damages, do so in small claims court.
