Since the brand of my car isn't on here, I figureed this was the best place to post my question. My car was stolen and totaled less than 100 yds from where it was stolen. I don't know how much I can get from my insurance company but I was told that it would be whatever the book value of my car was. It is a 96 Mercury Mystique that has an $80 battery, $1200 motor, and $400 brakes...all less than 3 months old. I had just gotten my car back from the shop the DAY BEFORE it was stolen and wrecked (I actually had the car less than 24 hours). What should I do as far as dealing with the insurance company? They wasted no time in calling me to find out what happened. They even took a recorded statement from me over the phone. I am only 19 and I am not quite sure what to do about all this "legal" stuff. Can anybody with experience help me or advise me as to what I should do? All help is greatly appreciated.
