Question

A pest control man knocked over and cracked the entire face of my 100 year old antique china doll. Does the company have to pay the value of the doll, or repair it. She is a 36 inch Simon & Halbig antique German doll from 1910 in good condition. Her eyes and hair was replaced. She is not in the original clothes. Other than that, looked great.



Answer

If he was negligent in what he did then he can be responsible for the repair or replacement of the item. You don't state whether his knocking it over was due to negligence or just due to placement of the item. You also don't state the value of the item, which would be important if a claim was to be pursued. Seek some legal guidance with all your facts.
