What can be done if one is involved in a hit and run but there is no proof?

Answered by attorney Jason William Savela
Personal Injury lawyer at The Savela Law Firm, P.C.
She should contact a lawyer that has handled these before - she should only tell police. I want a lawyer and I do not want to talk any more. The lawyer can help her deal with this. I have done several of these, both where my client was the hit and run driver and not. The cop will never believe your proof, but will collect statements and evidence and then charge your friend. Better to not give them evidence, have a lawyer tell them to back off.

How do i know if what i am being offered from an insurance agency is what is fare??

 Generally speaking, insurance companies are in business to make a profit so it is very unlikely that they are presenting you with their best offer right out of the gate. If you have minor injuries and you want to negotiate for yourself, try asking for double what they offered and see what their responses is.  I think the better course would be for you to consult a personal injury attorney who has experience in determining the value of a case because you have no idea whether you are being taken advantage of.  If you do retain an attorney, make sure that it is understood that their fee is only applicable to any recovery over and above the offer that is already on the table. Good luck.

What can I do to speed up my personal injury case?

Answered by attorney Linda Jane Chalat (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Chalat Hatten & Banker PC
Unfortunately most personal injury cases take at least a year before being resolved. We advise clients that the process runs 18 months to 2 years. Many injured victims need at least a year to determine the extent of any permanent injury. So as difficult as it is, it probably is in your best interests to give the process the time needed to reach a point where settlement can be reached in an amount that adequately compensates you.
