Do you mean provide the estimate of repair to the innocent party ? What they paid to the person you hit? This used to be easy, and we would provide this freely to the insured should they request it, but now with all the privacy laws, I'm not sure they can. I would think however that they could tell you the amount that was paid under your policy (property damage coverage) to the claimant. But not 100% sure they can do that anymore. The whole privacy thing, while good in many areas, has really caused problems in others. Am I to assume they have said 'no' to your request? If you havent asked for it do so, and if they site the privacy law, (or if they have told you no try again and ) ask if they can 'black out' personal info (this is on most estimates) such as name, address, phone number etc. then give it to you....sorry, wish I could be of more help.
