Someone hit my car a few weeks ago and we exchanged insurance info and numbers. I got an estimate and sent it to him. However, I am starting school in a week and have no way of getting there without my car. So, it won't be convenient for me to fix the dent until I get time off for Christmas break. He wants to pay cash since going through insurance would cost him more in the long run, but he wants to write the check directly to the place fixing my car. If I hold off on the repair, can he get away with not paying me? Is there a law about this?
