Hit & Run Attorneys in Dallas
Serving Texas Since 2012
Injuries sustained from car accidents can be difficult enough to deal with. When you add in the fact that the driver who caused the accident didn’t have the decency to stop and make sure everyone was unharmed, the situation is even more emotional and devastating. In the state of Texas, hit-and-run drivers are not only negligent but guilty of a serious crime. Victims of hit-and-run accidents have the right to seek justice and obtain compensation for their injuries. These types of cases are often complicated, depending on whether or not the driver has been found. With this in mind, it is imperative that you retain the services of a knowledgeable personal injury attorney should you find yourself the victim of a hit-and-run accident. The lawyers at Duke Seth PLLC have years of experience representing hit-and-run victims and will fight for your rights in a court of law.
By law, any person involved in a car accident must stop in a safe area and exchange information with the other driver(s) and/or offer assistance. If the person who caused the accident leaves the scene, it is considered a “hit-and-run”, which is a serious crime in Texas. Victims of hit-and-run accidents often believe they have no options. This is usually due to the fact that it can be difficult – if not impossible – to track down the person who caused the car accident. However, a skilled and experienced personal injury lawyer will be able to find options that benefit hit-and-run victims.
Our Dallas hit and run lawyers can assist you in securing fair compensation. Call us at (214) 466-1740 or contact us online to begin with a free initial consultation.
