HIT & RUN CAR ACCIDENT LAWYERS IN CALIFORNIA
COMPENSATION FOR HIT & RUN INSURANCE CLAIMS
California has more hit-and-run car accidents than any other state. Almost 10 percent of the state’s fatal automobile accidents are a result of hit-n-run accidents. National government statistics show that about 11 percent of car accidents are of the hit-and-run variety. That means almost 700,000 hit-and-run automobile accidents happen in the United States every year.
According to the law, the driver of any vehicle involved in an accident is required to:
- Stop the vehicle
- Locate the owner of the damaged vehicle or property
- Exchange driver documentation (including name, address, insurance, and the vehicle owner’s information)
- Stop and render aid to anyone that was injured in the motor vehicle accident, regardless of whose fault the car accident was.
It is extremely important to report your hit and run accident along with whatever information you can remember about the other vehicle, including the car’s license plate number to the proper law enforcement authorities as soon as possible. The police will then be able to investigate the hit-and-run accident and attempt to locate the fleeing driver.
Hire an Experienced California Hit & Run Car Accident Lawyer
Hit and run accidents can have a devastating effect on their victims. Unlike other automobile accidents, Hit and run collisions present unique challenges for the prosecution of your claim. Often, the driver and vehicle cannot be located. Other times, the reason the driver fled the scene, to begin with, was that they were intoxicated, or they did not have automobile insurance, leaving the victims unable to recover from the responsible parties.
Those that have uninsured motorist coverage are able to submit their claims to their own insurance company for recovery. It is important to remember that even though it is your own insurance company that provides this coverage, they are not on your side. The biggest mistakes we see at the B&D Law Group are from individuals that let their guard down because they falsely believe that their own insurance company will take good care of them. It is important to contact an experienced California car injury attorney as early as possible to help you submit your claim.
