Connecticut Hit and Run Accidents

Posted by Richard P. Hastings | Nov 28, 2011 | 0 Comments

Most Connecticut victims of hit and run accidents assume that because the person who caused the accident cannot be located that they will not be able to recover money damages for their injuries, some of which can be very serious. There are sources of compensation which may be available to you that could lead to a large financial recovery. Let our experienced personal injury and accident attorneys explain your rights to you and determine what sources of insurance coverage are available to compensate you for your injuries. It is important that you contact us at the earliest possible moment so that a timely investigation can be conducted into the facts of your case.

If you have been injured in a hit and run accident where the driver of the at fault vehicle is later arrested by the police or if the driver cannot be located you have the ability to access certain coverage under your own motor vehicle insurance policy. Every motor vehicle owner in the state of Connecticut is required to carry, as part of their standard insurance policy, uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. This coverage is like buying insurance protection for all other drivers on the road. You may even be able to access the insurance coverage of certain family members that might provide you with the ability to get additional monies for your injuries.

If the at fault driver cannot be located, or is later arrested but has no insurance coverage, then you can obtain compensation for your injuries by accessing your, or certain family members', uninsured motorist coverage. If the at fault party is later located and does not have enough insurance to compensate you for your injuries then you might be able to access your insurance policy, or certain family members', insurance policies for underinsured motorist coverage. Our experienced lawyers will speak with you about your case, either on the phone, at your home or our office or some other location to see what coverage is available to you to provide you with money damages. If you prefer you can fill out our brief online form and we will contact you. We will also promptly investigate matters concerning your case to help maximize your recovery.

Whether you were hit while in your vehicle, as a pedestrian either crossing the street or jogging on a roadway or while riding a bicycle contact us immediately to see how we can help you. It is important that you not delay in contacting our office as you may prejudice your case or make it more difficult to investigate. The call is free, the consultation is free, all cases are taken on a contingency fee basis which means that you pay no legal fees unless there is a recovery and we advance all costs which are only repaid to us if there is a recovery. You have every reason to contact us immediately! Put our experienced team of attorneys to work for you right away.
