We are by your side in all insurance law disputes, vehicle depreciation after traffic accidents, damage compensation and insurance arbitration processes.
Insurance law is a comprehensive and technical branch of law that regulates the relationships between insurance companies and policyholders, examining the rights and obligations arising from policies. Especially in the process of compensating material and physical damages after traffic accidents, the procedures of insurance companies and changing regulations can cause grievances for rightful owners.
📊 Important Statistics
An average of 1.2 million traffic accidents occur in Turkey per year. In the majority of these accidents, vehicle owners are entitled to depreciation and damage compensation.
A vehicle damaged as a result of a traffic accident, even if repaired in the best way, experiences a decrease in second-hand market value because it enters the status of "accident vehicle". This material difference between the pre-accident market value of the vehicle and its post-accident repaired state is called "Vehicle Depreciation".
During vehicle repair, insurance companies or contracted services may use "equivalent" or "aftermarket" parts instead of original parts to reduce costs. However, according to the "Actual Damage" principle in our law, original parts should be used in vehicle repair. Damage compensation covers the collection of the difference between the aftermarket part price paid by the insurance company and the original part price.
Applications to the Insurance Arbitration Commission, which conclude much faster than court processes (average 4-6 months), offer an effective solution for depreciation and damage compensation claims. As Koçak Law Firm, we are by your side in all disputes arising from insurance law.
