Not At-fault, Not Using Insurance - Need Multiple Quotes?
My vehicle was struck in the parking lot at my work. The culprit was determined thanks to surveillance cameras, and she says she doesn't want to go through insurance, but wants to pay out of pocket. I received an estimate from a local body shop where I have had work done in the past, and have a good rapport with. The estimate is just under $1,300. I provided her with this estimate and now she is telling me I have to provide her with two more quotes, and she will choose.
Do I legally need to give her three options? As I am the vehicle owner, is it not my choice who repairs my car?
