Getting hit by a driver who then flees the scene leaves you with a lot of unanswered questions. Why did they hit you? Why did they run? Yet even though you may have many questions, our Allison Park hit and run accident lawyers can answer some of them. We can use evidence from the crash to reconstruct what happened, identify if anyone else contributed to the crash, and construct a plan for pursuing damages.
Our car accident lawyers can help you understand your choices for compensation within Pennsylvania’s motor vehicle laws. Even if one question is never answered—who hit you—we can still work to help you access insurance benefits and other damages so that you can recover financially. Call Berger and Green today for a free initial consultation.
You can ask us any questions. At Berger and Green, we have 40 years of experience representing personal injury cases in Pennsylvania, so we can draw on that knowledge to help you fill in the blanks. Plus, getting information from us is free. We don’t charge for an initial consultation.
In fact, we don’t charge you anything during the work of your case. Our firm has a no-win, no-fee guarantee, meaning you don’t pay us anything if we don’t successfully secure a recovery fee.
The stakes of talking to our law firm’s attorney are low, while the stakes of waiting are high. Evidence could get lost or forgotten, deadlines and statutes of limitations could expire, and your window of opportunity for damages could get smaller. As soon as you are in a car accident, you can reach out to our attorneys.
Don’t assume that hit and run accidents are only the responsibility of the police officers in your area. They can work to track down the driver, of course, but they don’t help you with your injuries or recovery. In fact, any criminal charges the driver faces if and when they are located likely won’t compensate you.
Instead, you can hire our personal injury lawyer to handle the civil aspects of your case that the cops won’t touch—dealing with insurance, tracking down other contributing factors to the crash, filing paperwork on time and without errors, and negotiating a favorable settlement amount.
Our Allison Park hit and run accident lawyers can even investigate what happened. We can obtain the police report to get information about the accident as well as utilize other evidence like:
Even if the driver isn’t found, we can guide you through recovering monetary compensation through other avenues like insurance claims. You already leave the detective work to the police. Leave the legal work to us.
Car accident compensation is based on each individual car accident and victim, not on generalities. Factors that influence your potential damages include:
Because of Pennsylvania’s no-fault laws, you likely have insurance coverage that can provide some benefits even if the driver remains unknown. You can receive help with some medical bills through your personal injury protection (PIP) or, if you have it, uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.
However, PIP won’t necessarily cover all your bills, and what it covers is only up to your policy limits. This type of coverage also doesn’t include pain and suffering damages and only applies to your accident related medical treatment.
Our Allison Park hit and run accident lawyers can explore your coverage options and potentially file a lawsuit against the driver if found or consider other possible plaintiffs whose negligence contributed to the crash.
Your opportunities for certain damages are also affected by the insurance coverage you purchased: full tort or limited tort. In full tort, you can sue the other party for all losses, whereas limited tort, as the name suggests, only allows you to recover some. Like with PIP, pain and suffering is off the table with limited tort.
We can review your coverage to see if a personal injury lawsuit is possible in your case. Even if authorities don’t find the driver, we can potentially sue another party under some circumstances. Call Berger and Green today for a free consultation about your hit and run accident case. Our legal team is ready to answer your questions and concerns.
Some of your injuries could have been caused or worsened by a third party’s negligence:
The Berger and Green hit and run auto accident attorneys on your Allison Park case always consider these possibilities.
The deadline for filing a civil lawsuit for a negligence claim is two years per Pa. C.S.A. § 5524. This isn’t automatic, so have our hit and run accident attorneys look into this possibility for you.
There are certain contractual deadlines that must be met, however, with many uninsure motorist insurance policies. We can review with you the compensation you could recover from an insurer for the motor vehicle accident in Allison Park.
We may not be able to get you all the answers about why you had to suffer this accident, but the Allison Park hit and run accident attorneys can at least get you answers on what to do next.
