Chestertown Hit-and-Run Accident Lawyer

If you or a loved one was involved in a hit-and-run accident, a Chestertown car accident lawyer can explain your options for financial compensation. You do not have to search for the driver who fled or cover the accident’s costs out of your pocket. If possible, we will aim to identify the at-fault driver and pursue their insurer.

If the responsible party cannot be located, your Chestertown hit-and-run accident lawyer may be able to pursue damages from your uninsured motorist insurance policy. At MD Accident Law, we bring more than ten years of experience in personal injury law to your case. We care deeply about your accident and its effect on you and your family. We also care about recovering your lost wages and medical expenses.

Your Chestertown Hit-and-Run Accident Attorney Will Build Your Evidence File

Your official car accident report is a key piece of evidence. It will contain contact information for witnesses, the investigating officer, and other first responders. The police report could also contain police-generated photos that aid our investigation of your case and define the accident’s causes and contributing factors.

We will order a copy of the police report for you. In fact, we will collect all the required evidence and organize and submit it to your insurance company on your behalf. We will also collect medical records and bills, witness statements, proof of income, and other evidence that supports your right to financial recovery.

What You Need to Know About Uninsured Motorist Coverage in Chestertown, MD

According to the Maryland Insurance Administration, all registered vehicles in the state must carry uninsured motorist (UM) insurance in line with the state’s car insurance minimums of: 

  • $30,000 per person in bodily injury coverage 
  • $60,000 per accident in bodily injury coverage 
  • $15,000 per accident in property damage coverage

This is only the minimum coverage required by state law, so your specific policy could have higher limits. After a hit-and-run accident, our legal team will investigate your coverage in detail. The compensation we request for you may include:

  • Property repair or replacement costs
  • Known and anticipated lost wages
  • Medical costs, including rehab and therapy bills
  • Ongoing physical pain and suffering
  • Lasting mental and emotional anguish

When our Chestertown hit-and-run accident lawyer at MD Accident Law represents you, we will explore your policy’s limitations and seek fair compensation that covers your post-collision costs.

Put Our Chestertown Hit-and-Run Car Accident Attorneys to Work Recovering Damages for You

Recovering damages after any type of car accident is difficult. However, it can be even more difficult if the driver who caused your accident fled the scene. At MD Accident Law, we’ll focus on your case, so you can focus on healing. We can:

  • Assess the monetary value of your case
  • Review your insurance policy and its limits
  • Gather evidence that may identify the at-fault driver, so we can also pursue compensation from their insurance policy, if applicable
  • Complete and submit insurance claim forms
  • Speak with all relevant parties on your behalf 
  • Consult an accident reconstruction expert

Our law firm is devoted to representing car accident victims and other injured individuals. We can connect you with the same highly qualified healthcare providers who treat our staff and families to ensure you receive the best care.

We also foster ongoing client contact by providing every client with a unique text number for 24/7 communication. We will ensure you can contact a team member by phone or email at your convenience.

You Could Have a Short Deadline to File Your Hit-and-Run Lawsuit

Maryland law requires victims to file a personal injury lawsuit within the statute of limitations. In general, Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 5-101 gives you three years from the accident date to meet the statute of limitations.

Similarly, Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 3-904 generally gives you three years from a loved one’s death to meet the wrongful death statute of limitations. However, these deadlines may be even shorter in some circumstances. 

If the statute applying to your case expires, the court could bar you from filing your lawsuit, which could cause the accident’s financial burden to fall on you. Our personal injury law firm will work hard to help you avoid this costly consequence, 

Our No-Fee Guarantee Means Anyone Can Afford a Lawyer

No one should forego legal representation when they need it most or risk missing the filing deadline out of concern for the cost of hiring a lawyer. Our Chestertown hit-and-run lawyers will accept your case at no upfront or out-of-pocket costs to you. 

We will cover every expense related to building your case, including investigative, court, and filing fees. Our law firm also offers a no-fee guarantee, which means you only compensate us after we win compensation for you. If we do not win your case, you do not owe us any legal or attorney’s fees.
