Sorry about your accident.
My experience was somewhat different because 1) my car was clearly totalled, 2) I owned (not a lease), 3 ) airbags deployed.
If your car has bent the unibody , it might not be repairable.
What you need to look for is the dimished value because of the
accident. The lease company will hold you responsible for the
reduced value. Not sure how to determine that though.
As for GEICO, I can not comment. Typically, insurers will jack up
the rate by 1.4 to 1.6 X at the first at fault accident. However,
some insures will forgive the first accident. My insurer, for example, will forgive the first accident given a 6 yr clean record (which I had).
As for body shops, I know there is one in Falls Church VA that handles
all the bodywork for International Motors. I am sure that, if you call
International Motors, they will refer you.
Good Luck.
