Hit and Run Car Accident

Answer:

A hit and run car crash can be devastating. Whether it’s just a small brush in a parking lot, or a driver gives you the wrong information, or there are life-altering injuries, a hit and run accident can leave you feeling confused, frustrated, and cheated by the system.

If the car was covered by insurance, we can file a claim against the owner’s insurance and look to the owner’s policy. We’ll do everything we can to search for the car or the driver and find insurance. Our experts will help us find out whether there’s any coverage at all, and if so, who the company was. If you’ve been in a hit and run crash, however, all is not lost.

In a Utah hit and run crash, you will most likely have some built-in protections under your own insurance policy, even if the driver that hit you is never found or was driving without any insurance. These protections come in the form of uninsured motorist coverage and underinsured motorist coverage, and the state of Utah requires insurance companies offer these benefits with every auto policy.

Hopefully, the driver that hit you had insurance, but if they didn’t or they fled the scene, we may not even need to know who the driver was. Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage allows us to make a claim against your own insurance in a hit and run crash.
