Are Car Seats Covered by My Auto Insurance?

Feb 25

Written By Carrollton Injury Lawyer Joel Hudson

Your car seats and booster seats are usually covered by your insurance company after a car crash or collision. To get reimbursed for a new car seat, you will need to file an insurance claim. The insurance company will most likely want to see proof of the accident, so take pictures of the accident scene showing the damage to the car and the car seats in the car so that you can include a claim for replacement car seats in your property damage claim.

Even if the car seats are not visibly damaged, a crash can reduce their ability to keep children safe in the event of an accident in the future.

I’ve seen how a single injury can ripple through every part of your life, affecting not just you but your family too. That’s why my approach is different. At Carrollton Injury Law, we don’t just chase settlements; we focus on you. I’ve found that giving clients the extra attention many Dallas law firms overlook leads to happier clients, smoother dealings with adjusters who appreciate the updates, and, ultimately, higher injury settlements in less time. My clients often call me the “personal” attorney because we care about maximizing your recovery while also helping you navigate the disruptions a car accident or injury brings—whether it’s medical bills, lost work, or simply getting back to normal.

I earned my Juris Doctor from Texas A&M University School of Law in 1998, after completing my Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Business at Texas Christian University in 1992. Since being admitted to practice in Texas in 1998, I’ve dedicated my career to fighting for injury victims across the state.
