I have no clue what their insurance saw that made them change their mind. Obviously, the driver can still sue us in small claims. I think that the fact THEIR insurance decided not to pursue us, is telling though. It's not like OUR insurance had refused to pay, then they would try suing us...

I was thinking about this earlier. I will make sure that if we don't get anything in writing, I will have my partner call and request it from the subrogation agent. We have kept a paper trail thus far, it would be silly to let it slide now!

I really want to thank everyone for their replies! It has been so much help to us. We have been playing phone tag with their insurance company for the past two weeks. We had been talking, and realized that as they were claiming our property (the chicken) damaged their car, the fact they didn't...

Our insurance company has said because the amount is so small ($500), it's not worth the time to argue or fight the claim. They would just pay it. We already asked him if it would cause our rates to go up, he said yes. The bumper piece was found at the edge of our property, about 100ft from...

It's not going to go to court; she's already put it through her insurance. Her insurance will come after ours, and is. We will have no choice but to pay the insurance company directly, or they will subrogate to ours and our house insurance rates will go up because of the claim.

Just wanted to add some updates. Got a letter in the mail today from their insurance, saying they find us responsible for the damages etc etc. Was expecting that. Talks about subrogation, will figure that part out with my other half when he gets home from work. Also, yesterday my partner was...

The car is a Nissan, maybe an Altima? The police report was filed 24 hours later. Our whole road is about 75% gravel, we actually live in the 25% paved end. It's in good repair and it's a smooth road. We have a 4 foot wood fence back with cattle fencing to the front, with 5 foot chainlink to...

Her "sister" is still with us. They are probably 3-4lbs? I'm not completely sure. We haven't let a flock of ostriches roam free, it is (was) 15 Bantams and 15 laying ladies. I'm sure we won't hear anything over the weekend either way.

To answer a couple of questions. Our stretch of road is about 0.4 miles, ended by two 90 degree turns in opposite directions, kind of like a Z shape. I have high visibility to the left and right. This also means, that when you come around the corner you can see all the way down the straight...

We spoke to our insurance agent today. He said that we should hear from someone from our insurance company to get our side, if it gets subrogated. I guess that makes sense, as otherwise anyone could make a claim against another with no proof. We are going to finish fencing them to a particular...

We have realized our insurance agent isn't interested in keeping us as clients. He told us it wasn't worth fighting over $500 so they would just pay it. We would be glad to let it go to small claims court, but they are putting it through their insurance and their insurance will come after us...

If we let insurance pay, it will count as a claim against us. My partner hasn't had a claim in over 20 years, and he doesn't want his rates going up over $500.

Partner spoke to our insurance agent today. He said we would have to prove she was speeding, which would be very difficult. Told us that if they got the claim through, they would just pay it, so he recommended us contact her with payment. I am sick and upset to the point I don't want to live...

The estimate she brought by today was for $530 or so.

Last we heard she is putting it through her car insurance. Her insurance company told her they will come after us through our insurance. We've already called our insurance company to let them know not to pay anything. My partner hasn't had a claim in over 20 years, we would rather pay out of...

On the subject of cats and dogs that have been hit, I've seen an episode of People's Court where a lady ran over a dog, and sued the owner of the dog for damage to her car. She won. I'm sure we are liable for damage, but I don't think we are 100% to blame. Speed was definitely a factor, and...

The Sheriff's Department just stopped by and asked some questions. He took pictures of our chickens and of the splat and feathers in the road. He spoke to my partner on the phone. She stopped by this morning with a $500 estimate. It could be a lot worse. At this point I'm just hoping for...

In this State, concerning livestock at large on public highways, ""Livestock" means any animal, hybrid, mixture, or mutation of the species of horses, mules, donkeys, asses, cattle, swine, sheep, goats, domesticated deer, buffalo, bison, and beefalo.". It doesn't include chickens. No police...

Well, I sure have no clue what to do about it. I guess we will see when they get back with an estimate. I drove my daughter to school this morning, and maintained 20 the whole of our road. Unless a chicken stayed still and went under the wheel, it would likely survive being hit. Not to mention...

We live in the country, there are several properties that have free ranging chickens. Last week, there were pigs in the road. We are the only property who has even put a fence up towards the front. To finish fencing our acres would cost several thousand more and we just couldn't afford that this...
