Legal Question in Administrative Law in Florida

Re: car accident

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

If you know the other party, file a claim with that person's insurance. If not, you may approach your friend if the friend will pay to repair it since it was in the friend's care and control when the accident happened. Last, you will need to report it to your insurance company to get the claim filed and eventually the repairs made.
