Understanding Hit & Run Accidents

If you were hurt in a hit and run accident, your personal injury claim strategy should vary depending on the specifics of your case. The most important factor in these circumstances is whether the driver at fault is found by the authorities.

In a hit and run accident, victims can pursue compensation from:

Insurance providers: If you have injury insurance, you should file a claim immediately. If the driver is found and they have liability coverage, their insurance provider should also be paying coverage for your injuries.
The driver at fault: If the negligent driver is found in your case, they can be sued for damages regardless of whether they are charged with a crime (or whether or not they are found guilty).

Every case is unique and requires experienced legal insight to properly navigate. If you or a loved one have been hurt in a hit and run, Bashore Green Law Group is ready to help you assess your legal options.

What to Do After a Michigan Hit & Run Accident

Any car accident can be a shock to the system—this feeling is typically magnified when the motorists responsible for your injuries flees the scene of the accident.

We recommend doing the following if you have been in a hit and run accident:

Don’t try to follow the at-fault driver! This can easily lead to another—and potentially worse—collision.
Pull off the road and call an ambulance if needed.
Take pictures of the accident scene, including any property damage done to your car and the surroundings. Photograph bodily injuries as well.
Write down every detail you can remember about the vehicle that hit you, if you saw it. This includes the color, make, model, any or all of the license plate number, and what the driver looked like.
File an accident report with the police (they will conduct their own investigation to find the hit and run driver).
Get a medical checkup as soon as possible to ensure you haven’t suffered any serious internal injuries. Medical records will also help improve your insurance and personal injury claims if you file.
