When you have been in an accident and you contact the insurance company to open a file, they will then assign an insurance adjuster to open your claim. Once the adjuster is assigned to your case, they will do an inspection to assess the damage in order to determine whether it is classified as totaled or not. <strong>When determining the value of the vehicle after the accident, the adjuster will not factor in the damage to the car in the overall valuation. Their job is to seek an estimate of the actual cash value for the accident before the accident. This means that if your car is deemed a total loss due to the accident, they will not factor in the damages to your vehicle in the accident in the final valuation.</strong></p>
