Montgomery County Hit and Run Accident Attorney
A hit and run accident is one of the most distressing experiences a person can face. When another driver’s negligence leaves you injured — and they flee the scene — you’re left dealing with medical bills, lost income, and emotional trauma, all without the closure of knowing who was responsible.
At Wilk Law Firm, our Montgomery County hit and run accident attorneys fight for victims who have been abandoned after a crash. Even if the at-fault driver is never located, our firm helps clients pursue compensation through uninsured motorist coverage and other legal options. You deserve justice — and we’re here to make sure you get it.
Pennsylvania Hit and Run Laws
Under Pennsylvania law, all drivers involved in a crash must stop, exchange information, and render aid if someone is injured. Fleeing the scene of an accident is a criminal act, punishable by fines, license suspension, and even jail time.
Unfortunately, hit and run crashes remain common throughout Montgomery County, including Norristown, King of Prussia, Pottstown, Lansdale, and Abington. Whether the driver panicked, was intoxicated, or was driving without insurance, their escape does not erase your right to compensation.
Common Scenarios in Hit and Run Accidents
Hit and run crashes can happen anywhere — from highways to parking lots. Our firm regularly handles cases involving:
- Rear-end collisions where the driver speeds off
- Pedestrian or bicycle strikes
- Intersection crashes
- Sideswipe accidents on narrow roads
- High-speed or DUI-related collisions
- Fatal hit and run accidents
Each case requires quick action and skilled investigation to preserve evidence and identify all possible recovery options.
Your Legal Options After a Hit and Run
Even if the driver is never caught, you still have paths to compensation:
- Uninsured Motorist (UM) Coverage:
Pennsylvania requires insurance companies to offer UM coverage, which applies when the at-fault driver cannot be found. - Independent Investigation:
Our team works with law enforcement, reviews traffic cameras, and interviews witnesses to identify the vehicle and driver involved. - Third-Party Liability:
If the fleeing driver was operating a company vehicle, was intoxicated after leaving a bar, or was driving someone else’s car, additional parties may share responsibility.
At Wilk Law Firm, we explore every option to ensure no responsible party escapes accountability.
Injuries Commonly Seen in Hit and Run Crashes
Because victims are often left without immediate help, injuries from hit and run accidents can be especially serious. Common injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Broken bones and severe fractures
- Internal bleeding or organ damage
- Facial injuries and burns
- Fatal injuries and wrongful death
Our attorneys work closely with medical professionals to document the full extent of your injuries and their long-term impact on your life.
Compensation Available to Victims
Victims of hit and run crashes in Montgomery County may be entitled to recover:
- Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
- Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Emotional distress
- Wrongful death damages for surviving family members
We pursue every dollar you deserve through strategic negotiation and, if necessary, litigation.
