Israeli Car Accident Claim
Trusted80/100Walks you through the aftermath of a car accident in Israel: what to do and document at the scene, which insurance to claim under, and why bodily injury is compensated regardless of fault while property damage follows fault. Explains the difference between compulsory, comprehensive, and third-party cover, how to fill the accident report, the time limits, and when Karnit applies (hit-and-run or uninsured driver). Use right after an accident or when filing an insurance claim. Do NOT use for registration, the annual test, or insurance shopping (use israeli-vehicle-manager), or for serious injury litigation that needs a lawyer.

A car accident in Israel is stressful and the rules are counter-intuitive: bodily injury is compensated with no regard to fault, while property damage is entirely fault-based, and people routinely claim from the wrong policy or miss the steps an insurer later uses to reject. Many drivers do not know a police confirmation is required for the claim, that a fund (Karnit) covers hit-and-run and uninsured cases, or how long they have to act. This skill walks you through the scene and routes the claim to the right place.

Author: skills-ilWrite a legally-valid Israeli will and navigate the inheritance process under the Succession Law. The skill drafts a witnessed will (צוואה בעדים), which Israeli law does not require a lawyer for (though a lawyer's review is recommended): you write your wishes, date and sign, and two witnesses (who may not be beneficiaries or their spouses) sign too. It explains the four will types, how to deposit the will with the Inheritance Registrar, and how to get a succession order (צו ירושה, when there is no will) or a probate order (צו קיום צוואה, when there is a will). Use when you want to write a will, deposit it, or when a relative has died and you need an order. Note: an enduring power of attorney needs a certified attorney (see israeli-elder-care-navigator), and a contested estate or complex assets need a lawyer. This skill is not a substitute for legal advice.

Use it when someone in your family came from Europe and you want to know if a passport is within reach and how to file it yourself instead of paying an agency thousands of shekels. Do NOT use for immigrating to Israel, work or relocation visas, or as a substitute for a licensed immigration lawyer on a complex or contested case.
