Insurance Pays on Client’s Stolen Vehicle | Douglasville Attorney

Recently we had a client whose car was stolen while it was being worked on at a local auto repair facility in Douglasville. After the police investigated the incident and were not able to follow up on any leads as to who could have stolen the vehicle the officer informed our client that the auto repair facility was not responsible for his loss. Unless he had some type of insurance coverage that protected him in the event his car was stolen, he was just going to be out of luck. This did not sound quite right to us so we wrote to the automobile repair facility where our client’s vehicle was stolen. We were pleased to find out that the business had something called “Garage Keeper’s Comprehensive Coverage”. This insurance was additional insurance that the owner of the repair shop had purchased in the event of vehicles being stolen or damaged while on his premises. Our client is now in the process of recovering a claim against the repair shop’s insurance company and it appears he will be compensated for his stolen vehicle.
