Six months someone in my household caused some minor damage to another vehicle in a public parking lot. No pics were taken. After leaving contact info, a month later we get a call from the owner. Since I thought it was merely an out of pocket expense, I thought we could handle this without insurance company involvement, so I asked to see the damage myself, and tried to schedule a time, but was told it was a bad time for the family. Six months later, the owner calls back and says I can take a look now and that the damage had been appraised. His reported damage was NOT pocket change. I am concerned that so much time has elapsed that other damage could have occurred that I should not be responsible for.
What legal obligation do I have to pursue this? What is the limit of my liability?
