Does a Pedestrian Have An Uninsured Motorist Claim if Injured by a Hit and Run Driver?

by | Oct 19, 2020 | Firm News

What happens in this tragic incident if the police cannot locate the hit and run driver? If the pedestrian owns a vehicle she would be covered by their auto insurance policy pursuant to the uninsured motorist section of the policy. She could also be covered under another family members auto policy if she resides in the same household. At the very least it is worth having a lawyer look into it if the hit and run driver cannot be located.
