💡 Pro Tips
  • Gather as much documentation as possible before filing, such as photos, police report, medical bills, and details of the incident[2][3].
  • Do not admit fault or downplay damages when reporting[2].
  • You can start a claim with partial information and update details later online[3][4].
  • Track your claim status through the My Account portal after filing[1][3][4].
  • Review any initial settlement offer carefully; it may be lower than you deserve[2].
  • Consult with a lawyer for large or complex claims before accepting any offers[2].
⚠️ Watch Out For

❌ Deductible payment required before insurance payout begins[3].

❌ Potential increase in premiums if at fault and you don't have accident forgiveness[3].

🎁 Common Retention Offers

Allstate may offer these to keep you:

  • Accident forgiveness on your policy (if available) to prevent rate increases after your first accident[3].

💡 Only accept if it truly meets your needs!
