Just a little update.....
Total damage came out to be $7000. Yes, that's right......$7000! The insurance company handling the claim (other driver's insurance) estimates the value of my car to be $8500, so I came REAL close to a total.
This whole situation has turned out to be a complete cluster ****! The insurance company took WAY TOO long conducting their "investigation". Even with the police and accident reports clearly stating that their driver was 100% at fault, they insisted on taking almost 4 weeks to "investigate". Finally, they came to the conclusion that yes, their driver was at fault and they needed to cover 100% of the repairs to my car. Great.
Well, a week later, they up and decide that their driver WASN'T 100% at fault and that I was 20% responsible (which was total bull****). They subsequently said that they would only cover 80% of the damages. BULL****!
My attorney has been involved since day one and was just as PO'd as I was when I told them what UAIC was now saying. So my attorney contacted them to discuss the situation and, as my attorney so blatantly put it, they wouldn't budge an inch and were downright disrespectful. My attorney and I are now filing a lawsuit against the company. We have every intent to take these clowns to the cleaners (so-to-speak).
So, as the situation lies today, it has been well over a month since the accident and my car has yet to even begin being repaired. Word to all those who would rather avoid any future headaches, STAY THE **** AWAY FROM UNITED AUTO INSURANCE COMPANY





I will keep those who are interested posted on whats going on
