NO FEES UNLESS WE ARE SUCCESSFUL
Hit-and-run car accidents bring unique challenges for victims and their families, as the injured party or the victim's estate is left dealing with expensive medical bills, car repair costs, lost employment, and a plethora of other damages. In short, hit-and-run accidents can be overwhelming and exhausting for victims and their families—emotionally, physically, financially, and mentally. Hit-and-run car accidents are also unique because they often involve both civil and criminal charges. When a negligent or criminally liable driver has fled the scene of an accident, because they were operating under the influence, driving with a suspended license, were speeding or driving recklessly, did not have car insurance, or even simply became nervous and ran, they face stiff criminal penalties. Astoundingly, more than 100 drivers a month are fatally injured in hit-and-run accidents. Sadly, most of these hit and runs involve pedestrians, as around 20% of all fatal pedestrian accidents are caused by hit-and-run car accidents.
