What happened

Plaintiff claims State Farm Fire and Casualty Company failed to pay or pay adequately for diminished value losses—the decrease in value that occurs when damaged vehicles cannot be fully repaired to pre-accident condition—under its underinsured motorist property damage (UMPD) coverage for vehicles insured in Washington. State Farm denies wrongdoing and contends it paid appropriate amounts for diminished value as part of its regular claims process.

Do you qualify?

You qualify if you were a State Farm Fire and Casualty Company policyholder, your vehicle sustained structural frame damage or deformed sheet metal requiring body or paint work, the repair estimate totaled at least $1,000, the vehicle was no more than six years old with less than 90,000 miles at the time of accident, and the accident occurred between March 23, 2012 and February 13, 2024. Leased vehicles and total losses are excluded.

Is the Sanith v. State Farm Fire and Casualty Company Settlement notice real, or a scam?
