Brooklyn Hit-and-Run Lawyer

Few accident scenarios are more infuriating and overwhelming than hit-and-runs. Find out how to get compensated for one of these wrecks by consulting with a Brooklyn hit-and-run accident attorney.

In the aftermath of a hit-and-run accident, you are most likely wondering what your legal rights are and how to hold the driver responsible.

You may have serious physical and emotional injuries along with significant property damage. None of these are things that you should have to pay for, but it’s not easy to know what to do when the other driver flees the scene of the accident.

Not knowing who caused your accident can be stressful and frustrating because you want the negligent person to be held accountable, especially when it comes to covering your losses and costly medical bills.

Fortunately, a Brooklyn hit-and-run lawyer from Greenstein & Milbauer, LLP can help you determine what your options for seeking compensation are and what your next step should be.

You Can Hold the Hit-And-Run Driver Accountable

Finding the driver who caused your accident is probably one your main priorities after the crash. A lawyer from our firm will employ all of our investigative resources toward locating the hit-and-run driver. We want you to get justice, and we’ll work closely with the police to find the driver who hit you.

With our many resources and contacts, we will thoroughly investigate your car accident. Through reviewing video surveillance, interviewing witnesses, and collecting evidence such as paint scrapes, we can give you the best chance for locating the hit-and-run driver.

When the Hit-and-Run Driver Is Found

Because fleeing the scene of an accident is a criminal offense, a hit-and-run driver can be held liable in criminal court if the driver is located and proven guilty.

After the criminal case resolves, a guilty verdict can be used to support your case in a civil lawsuit.

Compensation for a Hit-and-Run Car Wreck

To ensure that you get full compensation for your injuries, we will hold the driver liable in civil court by filing a personal injury claim. You can recover financial damages to pay for your medical bills, lost income, and property damage, as well as your emotional distress and any pain and suffering you have endured.

Plus, you might also be eligible to receive punitive damages to punish the hit-and-run driver’s reckless behavior.

If the driver is not found, you might still be able to recover damages by filing an uninsured driver claim through your own auto insurance policy. Because insurance companies are in the business of making money, you even have to be wary of your own insurer taking advantage of you.

Your hit-and-run attorney will handle the negotiations with your insurer to get the highest possible payout, making sure they pay you a fair and full settlement.
