You Are Never Required to Use Your Insurer’s Shop
New York State law gives you the legal right to choose any licensed repair facility — period. Your insurance company may recommend or even pressure you toward their network shops, but they cannot require it.
Insurer-preferred shops are optimized for the insurer’s cost — not your repair quality. At Brookside, our I-CAR Gold certified technicians work for you, using OEM-compatible parts and manufacturer-spec procedures to restore your vehicle properly.
- NY State law guarantees your right to choose any licensed shop
- We contact your insurer directly — no paperwork hassle for you
- We file supplements for all covered damage, maximizing your payout
- Factory-spec repairs using OEM-compatible parts on every job
- Free 24-hour emergency towing to our Merrick collision center

What Our Customers Say
“Working with Brookside put me completely at ease! Laura and Paul took care of everything — insurance, rental return, and the paint match on my RED Mazda CX-30 was incredible. My car has never looked this good. HIGHLY recommend!”
“I can’t recommend Paul and everyone at Brookside enough! My first time going through insurance — Paul walked me through every step and kept me updated from start to finish. From starting the claim to pickup, I was never left in the dark. Thank you!!”
“Paul was incredibly helpful — taking photos for insurance, walking me through next steps, and coordinating everything. His team made what could have been a stressful experience feel completely seamless. My car looks brand new!”
