How Insurance Works When The At-Fault Driver Flees
When a negligent driver flees the scene of a crash, obtaining compensation can seem impossible. However, you still have viable paths to recover financial support under New York state law. First, your own no-fault insurance benefits are designed to cover your immediate medical expenses and a portion of your lost income, regardless of who caused the collision or if they fled. To secure these vital benefits, you must act quickly, as New York imposes extremely strict statutory deadlines for filing No-Fault applications.
Even with New York’s definition of ‘serious injury‘, you may be eligible to collect compensation for noneconomic losses including physical and/or emotional pain and suffering over the traditional No-Fault benefits you receive from your insurance provider.
Our skilled fleeing-the-scene accident lawyers can strongly negotiate the settlement of your claim against your own insurance company to prevent you from being unfairly used or having your claim refused.
