[Help] Smashed back windscreen

[Stat Brother]

I assume the OP is actually just fishing.....

Not an assumption I would make.
I assume he thought we'd all take advantage in some way and the OP was wondering just how far was acceptable.

Maybe a secret Christmas meal out of the kitty ?

wouldn't it be funny if the boss of the Company who broke the rear window was a NSC poster and read the OP

This could be a fishing trip and I've just been hooked but ...

the law on negligence [which is what most folk call an accident] is very clear.
The negligent party must put the damaged party back to a position they were in before the negligent event, or as near as possible - no more, no less.

Then along came litigation for personal injury and the flood gates opened ....

As already said many times above - to find someone with the decency to fess up, should not get a "ker-ching" reaction.

Hi

Looking for some advice, my back windscreen was smashed on my car - a company cutting the grass has accepted responsibility (orally and in writing) and said that they would pay for it to be replaced, just to get a quote and not involve insurance. What do you think I should do? I want to get some extra money out of them as I have been inconvenienced - what's the best way to go about this? I'm not saying I want to fleece them but I should be entitled so something surely, where there is a blame and all that?
Cheers

Honestly..? CJTC

Deserved having your windows put in if that's your attitude
