Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about hit and run cases and legal procedures.
Collecting information about the vehicle that hit you is crucial after a hit and run accident. Write down the vehicle's license plate number and take pictures or videos of the vehicle if possible. Document the scene and the motorists involved. Call the police. They may be able to track down the vehicle or find additional information about the car and its driver. After any accident, it's important to seek medical attention, gather evidence, and consult with a personal injury lawyer.
The statute of limitations for personal injury claims varies by state. In Florida, there is a two-year statute of limitations for most personal injury claims. It's important to consult with a lawyer as soon as possible to ensure you meet the deadline.
A hit and run is illegal. That means the perpetrator may face criminal prosecution for their actions. While this may represent justice, it doesn't compensate you for damages. That's why you can also file a civil claim. The compensation you may receive for your injuries depends on various factors, including the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. A personal injury lawyer can help assess your case and determine the potential value of your claim.
The duration of a personal injury case can vary depending on the complexity of the case, the extent of your injuries, and negotiations with insurance companies. Difficulties in tracking down the offending party can also cause delays. These incidents can be more complex than a normal car accident. It's important to work with an experienced personal injury lawyer who can guide you through the process and help expedite the resolution.
While it's possible to handle a personal injury claim on your own, having a hit and run lawyer can greatly increase your chances of receiving fair compensation. Hit and run cases can be especially complicated if there is also a criminal case against the offending driver. A lawyer can navigate the legal complexities, negotiate with insurance companies, and advocate for your rights.
