State Farm
State Farm Washington Diminished Value Settlement
Eligible Washington State Farm policyholders may qualify for an estimated average payment of $625 for diminished vehicle value. Claims are due December 14, 2026. Individual amounts depend on repair costs and prior payments.
Key facts
The lawsuit alleges that State Farm did not adequately pay diminished value under certain Washington underinsured motorist property damage policies. State Farm denies wrongdoing.
Who may qualify?
Covered accidents occurred from January 13, 2019 through February 27, 2026. Repairs must be covered under a Washington UMPD policy and total at least $1,000. The vehicle must meet the notice’s damage requirements, be no more than six years old and have fewer than 90,000 miles at the accident. Leased and total-loss vehicles are excluded.
What could you receive?
The administrator estimates an average payment of about $625 for qualifying claimants. It is not a fixed amount or guaranteed minimum. Payments depend on each claimant’s share of covered repair costs and are reduced by prior diminished-value payments. Final amount may change.
What information is needed?
A valid signed claim is required. The mailed notice includes a green claim form; the official site also links an online form. Coverage, repair costs, vehicle age, mileage and damage must satisfy the settlement requirements. Submit a separate form for each qualifying accident.
What dates matter?
Claims must be submitted online or postmarked by December 14, 2026. The exclusion deadline was September 30, 2026. The administrator listed an October 30, 2026 hearing. That date alone does not establish final approval or payment; no payment date is confirmed here.
Who may qualify
Washington State Farm policyholders with covered UMPD repairs following accidents from January 13, 2019 through February 27, 2026 may qualify. Repairs must total at least $1,000; the vehicle must be no more than six years old, have fewer than 90,000 miles and meet the damage requirements. Leased and total-loss vehicles are excluded.
What proof do you need?
Do you need proof of purchase?
For this settlement, you’ll need proof of purchase. A valid signed claim is required. The mailed notice includes a green claim form; the official site also links an online form. Coverage, repair costs, vehicle age, mileage and damage must satisfy the settlement requirements. Submit a separate form for each qualifying accident.
Where do these requirements come from?
From the official settlement notice - the document that sets out who qualifies and what they have to provide. Claim summarizes it; Claim does not set it. Where the notice and this page disagree, the notice is the one that counts.
How can I check a settlement email or text?
Who is the administrator?
Kroll Settlement Administration LLC is the settlement administrator: the company a court appoints to run the claims process, send notices and make payments. It is not the company being sued, and it is not Claim.
Is the sender's name enough to trust the message?
No. A sender name, a display name, a reply-to address and even a case number can all be copied. Check the case name and number in the message against the ones on this page, and reach the court-authorized settlement website yourself rather than through a link or button in the message.
What warning signs should I look for?
Any request for a fee, a payment or a wire to release settlement money. Any request for full banking login details. Pressure to act straight away. A web address that does not match the one in the official notice. Genuine notices identify the case by name and number and explain how payment is made.
Claim helps you check whether you may qualify, understand the official requirements, and keep track of settlement deadlines.
