What is a Hit and Run Accident?
A hit-and-run accident happens when a driver is involved in a crash but leaves without stopping to provide insurance details or offer help to those who may be injured. These incidents can involve vehicles colliding with each other, drivers striking pedestrians, or crashes that cause significant property damage.
For victims, the challenge lies in the absence of information. Without knowing who the other driver is, collecting damages through their insurance becomes impossible. This also creates obstacles in filing a lawsuit against the responsible party, since their identity is unknown.
Court King Injury Law steps in to close that gap. Our team works with investigators, law enforcement, and insurance resources to uncover evidence, identify potential leads, and pursue every available path for compensation, so victims are not left without justice or support.
What To Do After a Hit-and-Run Accident
If you’ve been involved in a crash where the at-fault driver fled the scene, the steps you take immediately afterward can protect your health and strengthen your legal claim:
Even if you feel fine, get examined by a medical professional. Some serious injuries may not show symptoms right away.
Call the police immediately to file an official report. This report is vital for your claim and helps law enforcement begin the search for the fleeing driver.
If safe, take photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, skid marks, and any debris left behind.
Collect names and contact details of anyone who saw the crash, especially if they noticed details about the fleeing vehicle.
Check the area for traffic cameras, business security systems, or residential doorbell cameras that may have recorded the accident.
Report the collision to your insurance company, making sure to specify that it was a hit and run.
Save medical bills, repair estimates, and proof of lost work days. These documents are critical for building your claim.
Before giving recorded statements to insurers, speak with Court King Injury Law. Attorney Jordan J. Butler will guide you through the process, protect your rights, and explore every option for compensation.
Taking these steps can safeguard both your recovery and your ability to pursue justice, even if the driver who caused the crash is never identified.
Why You Need Legal Help After Being Struck by a Hit-and-Run Driver
The aftermath of a crash involving a driver who flees the scene is especially difficult. These cases bring unique challenges that go beyond standard accident claims, particularly when insurance companies become involved. Having the right attorney on your side is critical to protecting your rights and pursuing fair compensation.
At Court King Injury Law, attorney Jordan J. Butler understands the complex hurdles hit-and-run victims face. Our firm fights to secure recovery for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages, even when the fleeing driver is never found. These cases often require specialized knowledge of uninsured motorist coverage, alternative compensation sources, and investigative strategies.
Even if the responsible driver cannot be identified, options exist. We work closely with law enforcement, review surveillance footage, interview witnesses, and use accident reconstruction experts to build the strongest possible claim.
In Nevada, many victims of hit-and-run crashes are eligible to recover through their own uninsured motorist coverage. Unfortunately, insurers often resist these claims or undervalue them. Court King Injury Law pushes back with aggressive negotiation and trial-ready preparation to ensure victims are not left without support.

Understanding Your Rights as a Victim of a Hit and Run
If you’ve been injured in a crash where the responsible driver fled the scene, knowing your rights is the first step toward protecting yourself and securing fair compensation. Court King Injury Law makes sure victims understand their options from day one.
Even if the fleeing driver is never identified, you still have the right to pursue compensation. This may come from:
- Uninsured motorist coverage under your own policy
- Potential claims against other responsible parties (vehicle owners, employers, or additional drivers)
You are entitled to a thorough police investigation. Officers may use witness statements, surveillance footage, and physical evidence left at the scene to help identify the driver.
Uninsured motorist coverage is designed to protect victims of hit and run crashes. This coverage can pay for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages when the at-fault driver cannot be located.
Insurance companies often resist paying out full claims. You have the right to an attorney who will fight back against these tactics and advocate for the recovery you deserve.
If the fleeing driver is eventually found, you may have the right to seek compensation from both their insurance and your own uninsured motorist coverage.
Insurers may push early, low settlement offers that fail to reflect the true impact of your injuries. You have the right to refuse and pursue fair compensation that accounts for both immediate and long-term damages.
Court King Injury Law stands ready to enforce these rights and fight for the recovery you need after a hit-and-run accident.
