Reclaiming Peace of Mind After a Hit and Run Accident
Being injured in a car accident due to someone else’s negligence is bad enough. Having the other driver flee the scene adds another layer of emotional and legal complexity. While most people are responsible while behind the wheel, others are not only negligent but downright criminal. If you have been injured in a hit-and-run accident, you deserve to be compensated by the negligent party for your injuries. Even if the responsible party is never found, you may still have options.

Unpacking Your Options After a Hit-and-Run Incident
Feeling stranded after a hit-and-run might be your initial reaction, but it shouldn't be your final one. The police actively investigate these cases, and they do catch fleeing drivers more often than you might think. And let's say the culprit remains a ghost—your own insurance might cover the expenses through what's known as an Uninsured Motorist claim. While the situation may feel overwhelming, options do exist to help ease your financial burden.

Contact Us Today
If you or a loved one need an experienced hit and run accident attorney, call us to schedule a free case consultation and we'll guide you to success.
You are not required to hire a lawyer, but legal help can matter when injuries, disputed fault, insurance coverage, evidence, or filing deadlines are involved. Etehad Law can review what happened and explain your options in a free consultation.
Etehad Law offers free consultations and handles injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means there are no attorney fees unless the firm recovers compensation for you.
Many California personal injury claims have a two-year deadline, but some claims can have shorter notice periods, especially when a public entity is involved. Because the deadline depends on the facts, speak with a lawyer as soon as possible.
Compensation may include medical bills, future medical care, lost income, reduced earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and other losses supported by the facts of the case.
Get medical care, preserve photos and records, avoid admitting fault, and consider speaking with a lawyer before giving a recorded statement or accepting a quick settlement. Early comments can affect how an insurer values the claim.
