Frequently Asked Questions

What damages can I recover for property damage in small claims court?
You can recover the reasonable cost of repair or the fair market value before damage (whichever is less), plus any out-of-pocket expenses like rental cars or storage directly caused by the damage.
Can I claim diminished value after a car accident?
Yes, in most states. Diminished value (DV) is the loss in resale value after a vehicle is repaired. You will need a DV appraisal or market evidence showing the reduction.
What if the other party says my property was already damaged?
The defendant may raise pre-existing damage as a defense. Having photos and records showing the condition before the incident is critical. Courts will subtract pre-existing damage from your award.
