Hit-and-Run Accidents Lawsuit Claims Lawyer

When a driver hits another vehicle, pedestrian or bicyclist and leaves the accident scene, it is considered a hit-and-run accident. Not only is it against the law, but the victim of the accident may feel like they have nowhere to turn to receive compensation for their injuries. If you have been the victim of a hit-and-run accident, you need legal advice to determine your best options to cover your financial damages. Our team at Ligori & Ligori Attorneys at Law is here to help, and we may be able to gain compensation for your losses.

There are many reasons a driver may flee the scene of an accident. They may have been intoxicated or under the influence of drugs and are afraid of getting caught. It is possible they were driving with a suspended license or have warrants out for their arrest. Whatever the reason, the accident victim needs to know that their medical costs, lost income and other expenses will be covered. If the at-fault driver cannot be located through a police investigation, there may be other options to seek compensation.

Filing an Insurance Claim for Hit-and-Run Accidents

After experiencing a hit-and-run accident, injury victims often find themselves grappling with uncertainty and financial strain. One avenue available to such individuals is to initiate a claim through their own insurance company. If the victim was driving during the accident and possesses coverage for collision, bodily injury, underinsured or uninsured motorist accidents, their insurance policy may cover the damages incurred. Even pedestrians or cyclists involved in hit-and-run incidents may potentially leverage uninsured motorist coverage from their auto insurance policy to seek compensation.

However, it is important to acknowledge that insurance companies tend to exhibit reluctance when it comes to paying out claims for hit-and-run accidents. Despite possessing coverage under their policy, many individuals encounter resistance and delays in obtaining the compensation they rightfully deserve. Insurance companies may scrutinize claims closely, seeking to minimize their financial liabilities and mitigate payouts.

In light of these challenges, enlisting the support of a skilled personal injury attorney can prove invaluable. A knowledgeable attorney possesses the legal experience and negotiation skills necessary to advocate effectively on behalf of the injured party. By leveraging their understanding of insurance laws and regulations, as well as their experience in handling hit-and-run cases, the attorneys at Ligori & Ligori can navigate the complexities of the claims process and work to secure a fair and just settlement.

Here are key considerations when navigating insurance claims after a hit-and-run accident:

  • Understanding Insurance Coverage: Familiarizing oneself with the details of their insurance policy and the extent of coverage available for hit-and-run accidents is crucial in determining the available options for seeking compensation.
  • Documenting the Incident: Gathering relevant evidence, such as witness statements, police reports and photographic documentation of the accident scene, can strengthen the validity of the insurance claim and support the victim’s case.
  • Negotiating with Insurers: Engaging in constructive dialogue with insurance adjusters demands effective communication skills and a comprehensive understanding of insurance policies and procedures. A skilled attorney can be a powerful advocate in negotiating a favorable settlement on behalf of the injured party.
  • Protecting Legal Rights: Navigating the claims process requires diligence and attention to detail to ensure the victim’s rights are protected and upheld throughout the proceedings.
