his word vs hers. If there's no police report, no witnesses available, and its after the fact, then he can deny anything _ I wouldn't normally suggest that, but she's totally trying to rip him off.
Well if it has been longer than 24 or 48 hours then they are both guilty of failure to report an accident.
So if she wants to play hardball then tell her to provide her estimates in writing from the sources. Then counter with any estimates you can get and tell her that is your final offer (the cheapest of course). If she doesn't like that then tell her to go file a report with her insurance agent and then give her the insurance info she needs from him.
She will be cited for failure to report an accident and he may as well but its a lot cheaper than what she is asking from him.
