Hit & Run Accident
Hit and run personal injury car accidents in Los Angeles can cause serious injuries due to the large physical size and weight of automobiles on the road, particularly because the victim did not see the driver who hit them when they were not looking. Hit and run car accident victims may require immediate attention at a hospital by an ambulance and deserve the professional attention of a hit and run car accident personal injury lawyer.

A victim of a hit and run car accident who is injured is at risk for many serious injuries. In an automobile accident in which the driver of the vehicle has fled the scene of the accident, a victim’s head, legs, arms, knees, neck, and spine are the most likely to be injured in an accident. Often, victims of a car accident may suffer severe pain and suffering from bodily injuries such as:
- Whiplash
- Spinal cord injury
- Neck Injury
- Torn Ligaments
- Torn Tendons
- Fractured bones
- Brain Injury
- Wrongful Death
Wilshire Law Firm represents people who have been hurt by at fault or negligent drivers of another vehicle who may not have had insurance and ran away from the scene of an accident. Often people who leave the scene of an accident do so because they may not have insurance, a driver’s license, or may have been driving under the influence and did not want to wait for and get arrested by the police at the scene of a crime. Common causes of hit and run accidents are when the driver who fled accident scene:
- Failed to stop for a stop sign or failed to stop at a red light
- Was inattentive and did not pay attention or was on the phone while driving and hit a car
- Did not stop before turning right on a red light at an intersection
- Failed to yield the right of way to a bicycle, car, pedestrian, or motorcycle on the road
- Violated the vehicle code by exceeding the speed limit on the street
- Failed to share the road or crosswalk with a another car, bicycle, or motorcycle on the street
- Drove into the bike lane and hit a bicyclist
A personal injury attorney can help to maximize the client’s likelihood of obtaining full compensation for loss of earnings, pain and suffering, medical expenses, and often help to arrange for medical treatment which may be otherwise difficult to obtain for someone who does not have medical insurance or a doctor who can work on a lien basis.
