How Do I File A Claim Against Advantage?

If you want to know how to sue Advantage car rental agency for injuries suffered from a car crash, you can call our firm for help. You will need a qualified lawyer on your side to successfully sue a company like Advantage. In order to do so, you must prove that Advantage was negligent in some way. Advantage cannot be held responsible if you were merely in a car crash that happened to involve an Advantage-owned vehicle. Instead, Advantage must have done something or contributed in some way to the accident. This can happen in a few different ways. All Advantage locations must adhere to state rules and regulations for renting vehicles. This means that only individuals who have valid driver’s licenses, valid insurance coverage, and who are over the age of 21 can rent vehicles. If an Advantage representative allows an individual to rent a car who does not fit one of these standards, then the company can be held liable for any ensuing accidents. Additionally, Advantage needs to inspect all cars that are returned to the company before allowing another customer to drive them. This is because any amount of wear and tear can have a negative impact on the car, and some damages may not be external at all. The defects or problems can escape the naked eye. If Advantage provides a car that has issues to a customer, the company will be on the hook for the subsequent damages. If you wish to file a claim against Advantage, you should have ample evidence to back up your case. This can include the following:

• Photos and videos of your injuries
• Pictures of the damage to the vehicle
• Imágenes del lugar del accidente
• Medical notes and bills from the doctor after you got any kind of treatment (always get medical treatment as quickly as possible to prevent further injuries from developing and to ensure that the insurance agency cannot claim that you were hurt in another incident days later)
• Contact information from the other driver who hit you
• A copy of the bill from Advantage and credit card or bank statements showing you paid for the rental car if you were driving one
• Eyewitness reports and testimonies from passengers or bystanders
• Copy of the police report if the police showed up to conduct an investigation
