a claim rep from your insurance companywill come and take a look at your car, calculate the the damage and will write a check out to you. if you're going through the other persons insurance company, someone from his or her company will come and quote your damages (labor and parts) and send you a check. take your car to a body shop (mobworks in orange) and they will give you their quote. if the cost is actually more than the actual check, mobworks will call the insurance company and collect the difference.

miguel at mobworks is real cool. call him and see what he can do.

so if they havent finished estimating the total cost yet ..... they should write a check to me once they know how much the total cost to fix my car right???
not to the shop right?

the adjuster or appraiser will get an agreed price w/ the shop. if it's a two party check i.e. your name and shop, the shop will generally have you sign a power of attorney form(or similar) so they may cash the insurance check on your behalf to repair the vehicle.

btw i'm one of those insurance people
