⚖️ Liability & Fault in Bluffton
When a driver cannot be identified, your own uninsured motorist coverage often becomes the primary path to compensation. Georgia requires this coverage unless rejected in writing (O.C.G.A. § 33-7-11), and prompt reporting to police and your insurer helps protect your claim.
⚖️ Legal Information
Prompt police reporting strengthens a hit and run claim, and most insurance policies require notifying your insurer quickly as well. We help you meet every notice requirement so a technicality doesn’t cost you your claim.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
1Can I recover compensation if the driver is never found?
Often yes, through your own uninsured motorist coverage if you carry it and you reported the accident promptly to police and your insurer as your policy requires.
2Will my insurance rates increase after a hit and run claim?
That depends on your insurer and policy, but you generally should not be penalized for a claim caused by someone else’s fault, especially a fleeing driver.
3What if the hit and run driver is later identified?
If the driver is found and has insurance, your claim may shift to pursue their policy directly, potentially in addition to your own UM coverage depending on the circumstances.
Even if the driver is never identified, witness accounts, nearby cameras, and vehicle debris can help build your case — and your insurer still owes you a fair claims process either way.
