Tewksbury Hit and Run Accident Attorney

Hit and run accidents can be difficult to deal with due to the fact that the other motorist or person responsible for the accident has fled the scene. There are criminal penalties associated with leaving the scene of an accident, and thus you should contact the police immediately following a hit and run. It is also essential to contact a Tewksbury personal injury lawyer in order to discuss your rights and your options at this point. At the Law Office of Brian Bagby, we offer a free consultation to those who have been in a Hit & Run accident in the Lowell, Tewksbury or Andover, Massachusetts area.

By evaluating your injuries and the accident itself, Tewksbury hit and run accident attorney Brian Bagby can determine what your claim may be worth and what options you have as far as collecting compensation from insurance policies. This can be complex, as there may be multiple policies involved. The insurance company may try to deny or delay the payment of your claim, or may offer you a settlement below what your claim is actually worth. By having a skilled attorney to employ aggressive negotiation strategies, you can help ensure that you are not taken advantage of.

Hit and Run Collisions & Insurance Coverage

Being involved in a collision where the other driver does not stop and provide his or her contact information is classified as a hit and run. Following are some examples of hit and run accidents:

• Being involved in an auto accident wherein the other driver flees the scene.
• Being run off the road by another vehicle, even if there is no physical contact between the vehicles, and the other driver leaves the scene.
• A bicyclist being hit by a motor vehicle that then flees the scene.
• A bicyclist suffering injury or being forced into an accident as the result of action by a motorist, when the motorist then leaves the scene.
• A pedestrian being struck by a vehicle that then flees the scene.

The standard Massachusetts Motor Vehicle insurance policy provides coverage for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and the loss of enjoyment of life if an insured or a family member has been injured in a hit and run. In these cases, it is not necessary that you identify the driver who committed the hit and run.
