What is a Restitution Agreement?

A restitution agreement is a contract that outlines how much money should be repaid for an injury. For example, if a party is involved in an accident with another vehicle and the other driver leaves the scene, it may not be clear who caused what damage to whom or how much it will cost to fix everything.

To avoid this situation becoming too complicated, a party can create a restitution agreement with the at-fault party's insurance company. This way, everyone knows exactly who owes what amount of money back to whom.
