Hit and Run Accidents

Our personal injury lawyers may be able to assist you even if you are struck by an unidentified hit-and-run driver. Occasionally, a driver may ultimately be identified, and sued in a lawsuit, even if he or she fled the scene. In the more common situation, where the hit and run driver remains unidentified, you might be able to recover under uninsured motorist insurance coverage covering you, your family or the vehicle that you were occupying. Most Connecticut automobile insurance policies have defined "uninsured motorist" to include an unidentified driver. Our personal injury attorneys would be pleased to discuss your hit-and-run accident case with you.

Unfortunately, uninsured motorists and motorists who evade responsibility are a fact of life in Connecticut. This is another reason to meet with your insurance advisor and review your limits on uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage to be sure that those limits are providing you and your family with adequate protection.
