Jefferson County Hit-and-Run Accident Attorney
Alabama law is clear: If you are involved in a car accident involving injury or significant property damage, you must not leave the scene until cleared by an attending police officer. Unfortunately, though, many people involved in accidents know they are in trouble because of driving drunk or without proper insurance. Hit and run is becoming more common on our roads and highways, often leaving innocent injury victims fighting for compensation against their own uninsured motorist (UIM) insurance policy.
If you are the victim of a hit-and-run accident, don't give up hope of recovering money damages. Your insurance company should be prepared to pay for damages, but you will be treated as a hostile claimant, and the settlement offer is often less than the full extent of your injuries and financial losses. The Drake Law Firm is ready to help you stand up and protect your rights. We know the avenues for finding compensation.
We opened our doors in 1998 with a commitment to integrity, honest communication and hard work on behalf of our clients. Today, we have a proud record of numerous significant settlements and jury verdicts, including many verdicts of more than $1million.
Determining contributory negligence in a hit-and-run wreck often means taking extra measures to prove that you were not at fault. When necessary, our trial attorneys work with independent professionals to prepare the strongest case possible.
