We often help people who were injured in hit-and-run accidents and have no idea where to turn. These crashes are incredibly stressful because the other driver leaves the scene and may never be found.

The first step is always to call the police. A formal report is essential, even if you think there is not much they can do. Next, seek medical attention right away. Even minor injuries can become more serious over time, and documentation is critical for your case.

The next step depends on your insurance coverage. If you have uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, it may apply in a hit-and-run. In many cases, UM can cover your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering when the at-fault driver cannot be identified.

These cases can be complex, especially when your own insurance company is involved. We are familiar with how to handle them, and we will make sure your rights are protected from the start.
