Legal Question in Insurance Law in Indiana
My parked car was hit by someone and quite a bit of damage was caused. I got an estimate from their insurance company and they are wanting to use aftermarket parts. Do I have a right to have at least the body parts be OEM with no extra charge to me?

Insurance companies can use after market parts as long as their quality is industry accepted. You do not have a right to insist upon OEM parts at no extra charge. This is standard industry practice.
