What should I do if I was the victim of a hit and run in Florida?
Return to FAQ VideosTranscript:
If you’ve been the victim of a hit and run accident in the state of Florida, you should immediately call the police. Oftentimes, the police will be able to find the person that caused the accident. In addition, it’s very important that that person be found so that you know who their insurance company is. Oftentimes, the person has fled the scene because they’re intoxicated, and that also may bring other claims for you to make a recovery in your personal injury claim.
Your own insurance company, too, may also want you or need you to immediately report and hit and run accident to the police officer so that they could potentially find the person that caused the accident. Please remember, even if that person cannot be found, you may still have a claim for personal injuries. Please call a competent attorney for a consultation.
