If there are any witnesses to the accident, you should talk to them as soon as possible, the lawyers at Cohen & Cohen advise. They may be able to corroborate your statement and provide additional details. Things happen very quickly after an accident. If you have time to take statements, you should do so, but at the very least, you should collect witnesses’ names and contact information so you can get their stories later.
Even after a hit-and-run accident, you still have the right to seek justice, and an attorney may be able to help you.
