Who is Responsible for Paying for Injuries After a Hit and Run Accident?

The motorist who hit you will be held responsible by the law, and also for your injuries. In many hit and run cases, the driver who caused the accident speeds away from the scene of the accident, leaving few clues to their identity. If this is the situation in your case, uninsured motorist coverage may be available. This coverage may cover your injuries and medical treatment, even if the person who hit you fled, and even if you were not in a vehicle when struck.

Getting a fair settlement from an insurance company can be complicated and exhausting. The insurance company will be unwavering in their attempts to settle quickly so they can pay out the bare minimum. You deserve more. Don't become a victim twice.
