Hit-and-Run Accidents

All types of accidents pose legal challenges to victims and their families. To assist victims and wrongful death survivors through the complex process of personal injury litigation, attorneys must establish liability and prove the amount of damages suffered by the client.

Tricky cases involve, hit-and-run drivers.  This is because they pose difficulty when no citizen steps forward to prevent the perpetrator from escaping without being identified. There are times during ahit-and-run when the victim may not recover from anyone because the wrongdoer cannot be identified.  But there are sometimes other options for identifying the wrongdoer such as; detection, including security camera images and eyewitness accounts that can provide crucial clues about the driver's identity. At the Law Offices of Loren M. Merlin in Los Angeles, creative attorneys can pursue possible alternative sources of recovery, such as the victim's own insurance or other parties who may have contributed to the accident; for example, those creating poor lighting, unsafe road surfaces, conditions which obstruct the driver's visibility and other hazards.
