      Frequently Asked Questions

      Common questions answered

      Dealing with the aftermath of a hit-and-run accident can feel overwhelming—especially when the at-fault driver leaves the scene and you’re left handling injuries, medical bills, and insurance challenges alone. Below are clear, straightforward answers to the most common questions we hear from hit-and-run accident victims, so you understand your rights, your options, and what to expect before taking the next step.

      What should I do after a hit-and-run accident?
      After a hit-and-run accident, call 911 immediately and seek medical attention. Try to remember details about the fleeing vehicle, such as color, make, model, or license plate. Gather witness information and take photos of the scene. Reporting the incident promptly is critical for both your safety and your legal claim.
      Yes, you may still recover compensation through your uninsured motorist (UM) coverage. In California, this type of insurance can help cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages when the at-fault driver cannot be identified.
      Even if the driver flees, evidence such as surveillance footage, witness statements, and accident reconstruction can help establish fault. Law enforcement investigations and legal support play a key role in building a strong case.

      In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim in California. However, insurance claims—especially uninsured motorist claims—may have shorter deadlines, so acting quickly is essential.

      Hit-and-run cases can be complex due to missing information about the at-fault driver. A lawyer helps investigate the incident, work with insurance companies, and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve—even when the driver is not identified.
